CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Indianapolis Colts rookie receiver Josh Downs was ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game with the Carolina Panthers because of a knee injury.
Downs was limited in practice Thursday and Friday with a knee injury and was considered questionable entering the game. He then left in the first half and was said to be questionable because of the knee issue.
He was subsequently ruled out after halftime, having caught one pass for 10 yards.
As a result, the Colts are left thin at receiver, with veteran Isaiah McKenzie replacing Downs.
