Caleb Douglas active for Dolphins vs. 49ers, seeks impact in game
Summary

Caleb Douglas, the Miami Dolphins rookie wide receiver, is active for today's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Douglas had a promising debut, recording five receptions for 94 yards last week.

With the Dolphins' receiving corps lacking experienced players after offseason departures, he is expected to take on a significant role as the season progresses. The team continues to build chemistry under new quarterback Malik Willis, who previously connected well with Douglas.
