Dolphins want a team built on toughness, Hafley's first win showed that identity taking shape

The Miami Dolphins picked up their first win of the season and their first victory under first-year head coach Jeff Hafley after defeating the New York Jets 28-25

5 DAYS AGO • Associated Press

Scores on both catches in return Douglas (ankle) caught two of three targets for 70 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-25 win over the Jets.

Impact Douglas made an immediate impact in his first action since Week 2. The rookie third-round pick capped the game's first drive with a seven-yard touchdown catch for his first NFL TD, then stayed in along the sideline to score again on a 63-yard catch-and-run in the fourth quarter. Miami utilizes a run-heavy approach when possible, but the Dolphins may be forced to throw more if they fall behind as expected in Week 8 against the Patriots, which could lead to more opportunities for Douglas.

Dolphins rookie WR Caleb Douglas set to return vs. the Jets after missing 3 games with ankle injury

Miami Dolphins rookie receiver Caleb Douglas will play Sunday against the New York Jets after missing the past three games with a right ankle injury

OCTOBER 23 • Associated Press

Will return Sunday Dolphins coach Jeff Hafley said Friday that Douglas (ankle) will play Sunday against the Jets, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact The rookie wideout hasn't played since Week 2 due to an ankle sprain. He'll return to a wideout corps that has been featuring Malik Washington and fellow rookies Chris Bell and Kevin Coleman as its three-wide set. Douglas should push Bell for an every-down role alongside Washington, bumping Coleman down the depth chart. Only Washington is a reliable fantasy option in 12-team leagues.

Churns out limited practice Douglas (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Back practicing with Miami this week for the first time since exiting a Sept. 20 loss to the 49ers due to an ankle injury, Douglas had his reps capped for the second day in a row. The wideout noted Wednesday that he's viewing himself as day-to-day at this stage of his recovery, and he'll likely need to upgrade to full participation at Friday's practice to head into Sunday's game against the Jets without a designation. If available to play this weekend, Douglas will likely slide back into a top-three role at receiver.

OCTOBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Labels self as day-to-day Douglas (ankle) practiced Wednesday and said that his status is day-to-day heading into Sunday's game against the Jets, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Though the extent of his practice participation won't be known until the Dolphins post their first Week 7 injury report later Wednesday, the rookie wideout was able to get back on the field in some capacity for the first time since exiting a Week 2 loss to the 49ers. Coming off a four-week, three-game absence, the rookie wideout will likely need to turn in at least one full practice during Week 7 prep in order for the Dolphins to clear him to play Sunday against the Jets.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Set for limited practice Monday Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said that Douglas (ankle) will be a limited participant in Monday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact A return to even limited work is a positive step for the rookie wide receiver, who hasn't played since Week 2.

OCTOBER 15 • Associated Press

Not yet practicing Douglas (ankle) was spotted working out off to the side during Tuesday's practice, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.

Impact Even though they're on bye for Week 6, the Dolphins held an informal session Tuesday. Douglas didn't look to be mixing into drills with his healthy teammates, which has been the trend since he injured his ankle in a Week 2 loss to the 49ers. The rookie wideout will look to take advantage of the bye week with the hope of making enough progress in his recovery to potentially resume practicing with the Dolphins when the team kicks off Week 7 prep next Wednesday.

OCTOBER 11 • Associated Press

Ruled out for Sunday Douglas (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact With Douglas set to miss a third straight game, Miami will again trot out Malik Washington, Chris Bell and Kevin Coleman as its primary three-receiver set.

OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful to play Sunday Douglas (ankle) will practice in some capacity Friday but is still considered unlikely to play in Sunday's game against the Bengals, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After missing practice Wednesday and Thursday, Douglas appears to be making some progress in his recovery, but his status for Sunday still trends toward another absence. If he remains out, Miami would be without the rookie wide receiver for a third straight game, allowing Chris Bell and Kevin Coleman to play significant snaps at wide receiver alongside target hog Malik Washington.

Remains unavailable Thursday Douglas (ankle) didn't practice Thursday, C. Isaiah Smalls of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Douglas hasn't practiced or played since hurting his ankle in Week 2 against the 49ers. The rookie third-round pick is trending toward a third consecutive absence Sunday against the Bengals, though Douglas could gain at least a glimmer of hope to play by returning to practice Friday.

Dolphins look likely to be without Caleb Douglas again in Week 5 The Miami Dolphins are still unsure whether or not WR Caleb Douglas can play in Week 5, but HC Jeff Hafley still has some good news.

OCTOBER 8 • PHINPHANATIC.COM

Won't practice Wednesday Douglas (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact With Douglas still unable to practice after missing Miami's last two games, his status for Week 5 against the Bengals remains unsettled. Hafley's comment suggests some progress in the rookie wide receiver's recovery, but Douglas likely needs to get back on the field later in the week to improve his chances of playing Sunday.

Deemed day-to-day Head coach Jeff Hafley said Monday that he's viewing Douglas (ankle) as day-to-day heading into the Dolphins' Week 5 game against the Bengals, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald rep...

Impact Douglas has missed the Dolphins' last two games while recovering from the ankle injury he sustained in a Week 2 loss to the 49ers. Hafley noted that the Dolphins are proceeding "one day at a time" with Douglas, who hasn't practiced in any fashion since getting injured and will likely need to turn in at least one full practice this week to have a shot at playing Sunday. Miami is on bye Week 6, so the team could opt to take a conservative approach with the rookie wideout and hold him out for a third straight contest if he's still not back to full speed by the weekend.

Ruled out for Sunday's game Douglas (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After missing practice time this week and sitting out the Dolphins' last game, Douglas will remain sidelined for another contest. His absence removes a starting wide receiver from Miami's offense and should leave more snaps available for the team's other pass catchers Sunday.

Not practicing Thursday Douglas (ankle) remained a non-participant during the media-viewing portion of Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Douglas didn't practice last week prior to sitting out this past Sunday's loss to the Chiefs. Head coach Jeff Hafley provided some optimism earlier in the week by labeling Douglas day-to-day, but the rookie wide receiver has yet to resume practicing ahead of Sunday's game against Minnesota. Douglas will likely have to practice in at least some capacity Friday to avoid being ruled out on Friday's injury report.

OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Misses practice Wednesday Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said that Douglas (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, Travis Wingfield of the team's official site reports.

Impact Hafley labeled Douglas as day-to-day when he spoke to the media Monday, but the rookie wideout apparently hasn't made enough progress in his recovery from the ankle injury two days later to practice in any fashion. Considering he missed the Dolphins' Week 3 loss to the Chiefs, Douglas will probably need to put in a full practice by Friday in order to approach Sunday's game in Minnesota without a designation.
