Douglas debuts with 94 yards, ties Hill's Dolphins first-game record.

The Texas Tech product was selected in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft by Miami and initially criticized as a reach by draft pundits; however, he opened his professional career with five receptions for 94 yards in his first NFL game, the most ever for a Dolphins rookie wide receiver in his debut. His 94 receiving yards tied Tyreek Hill's 2026 franchise record for most receiving yards by a Dolphins receiver in his first game with the team, earning him a nomination for the Pepsi Rookie of the Week award.
