The Colts' house-cleaning may not be done. Wide receiver Josh Downs has requested a trade, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported Wednesday, a day after Indianapolis shipped out Quenton Nelson and DeForest Buckner.

Downs, 25, is in the final year of his rookie deal and has reportedly drawn interest around the league, per Pro Football Talk and CBS Sports. Coach Shane Steichen said running back Jonathan Taylor has not asked out, though that does not take him off the market.

The Colts sit at 2-5, and the trade deadline is Nov. 10 at 4 p.m. ET. Neither Downs nor the team had publicly commented on the report.
