Josh Downs trade grades: Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes get help, Colts get value for disgruntled WR

The Indianapolis Colts traded wide receiver Josh Downs and a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Kansas City Chiefs shortly before Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline. In return, Indianapolis received 2027 fourth- and fifth-round picks. Downs, who had requested a trade earlier this season, will join quarterback Patrick Mahomes as Kansas City looks to strengthen its receiving group for a playoff push.
