Colts’ Josh Downs requests trade even though he probably didn’t actually need to do that

The Indianapolis Colts’ fire sale is not going to end any time soon. With the NFL Trade Deadline on November 10, the Colts have two weeks to figure out who is going to remain on the roster. On Wednesday, one day after both Quenton Nelson and DeForst Buckner were dealt away , wide receiver Josh Downs requested a trade . The funny part about this is that Downs probably didn’t need to come forward with this request. The Colts were likely going to trade him anyway, according to Adam Schefter, Jordan Schultz , and Ian Rapoport.
