The Miami Dolphins rule out rookie wide receiver Caleb Douglas for Week 3 against the Kansas City Chiefs due to an ankle injury. Multiple outlets report that Douglas has a right ankle issue and will not play Sunday.
The injury occurred during Miami’s Week 2 loss at San Francisco. Reporting indicates he does not practice this week, which leaves the Dolphins preparing without him for the matchup. In Douglas’s absence, Miami is expected to lean more heavily on other receivers, including Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert, and Chris Bell.
While coverage is consistent on Douglas being inactive for the game and the injury being an ankle problem, some outlets emphasize the roster implications and shifting target distribution rather than repeating the exact timeline of the injury. Overall, the focus remains on his status for the Chiefs game and the Dolphins’ adjustments at wide receiver.
