Colts receiver returns from injury

play

INDIANAPOLIS – The Colts lost two receivers in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game against the Lions.

Josh Downs, the team’s leader in receptions, was unable to leave the field after his right shoulder was driven into the turf at the end of a play.

Downs suffered a right shoulder injury and was questionable to return, but returned to the field on the next drive. Downs reached the right side of the field holding his helmet and was examined by trainers on the bench for a while.

The Colts slot receiver, who leads Indianapolis with 53 receptions and ranks second on the team with 594 yards, made a movement indicating the pain in his shoulder was near his neck as he moved his arms around as trainers examined him.

Indianapolis also lost veteran wide receiver and shooter Ashton Dulin, who suffered an ankle injury and was immediately ruled out for the remainder of the game.
