Josh Downs feels prepared for challenges of first NFL training camp

Posted Jul 29, 2023

Earlier this summer, he passed on those lessons to his son, Josh Downs – the wide receiver the Colts selected in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. So as Downs enters first NFL training camp this week, he's kept those words of wisdom in mind. (Indianapolis Colts)
