Douglas has missed three straight games with the ankle injury he suffered late in the Week 2 loss at San Francisco (Sept. 20), when a defender landed on his leg, per SI. Miami ruled him out on Oct. 9 for the Week 5 game against Cincinnati, and the Dolphins are on bye in Week 6.
Before the injury, the third-round rookie played 51 of 59 snaps in Week 2 and caught seven passes for 113 yards over Weeks 1 and 2, per FantasyPros and SI.
Fantasy Action: Keep Douglas on your bench until he practices fully; in deeper leagues he is worth holding given his every-down role when healthy.
