  "account": "Josh Downs is the star third-down target for the Indianapolis Colts. Defenses are well aware of his value, with quarterbacks Daniel Jones frequently targeting him on down situations. Downs has been consistently productive, with 63 yards in the last two games against Washington and Pittsburgh, and 74.5 yards in previous matchups against Kansas City and Houston. The Indianapolis coaching staff is working to find ways to exploit the double-team often placed on Downs, as well as ways to make him harder to find in coverage. The team's success may hinge on how well they can navigate the extra attention from opposing defenses.",
  "summary": "With Alec Pierce out, defenses are doubling Josh Downs on third down. The Colts must make them pay by getting other receivers open.",
