iMessage Image Only Shows JPEG Placeholder Thumbnail

I received some text messages earlier with photos. Service was not great, and my phone presented the “tap to download” button. I did this and it downloaded one. For two others, the download never completed, and there is no option to re-attempt downloading the images. Instead, a static thumbnail icon is showing for each of those two remaining pictures that just says “IMG_0743” and “IMG_0744” but I’m unable to do anything. I’ve tried restarting iPhone and resetting network settings. Please help.
