Caleb Douglas injury: status, history and who gets his targets if he is out
Miami Dolphins · Wide receiver · status this week: QUESTIONABLE (ESPN)
Caleb Douglas has played 2 of 5 so far in 2026. Season by season.
No absence modeled for week 7. He is projected to play in week 7, and this week’s absence model covers only each room’s top two wide receivers by usage with at least 0.8 projected catches. He is not one of them this week, so there is no “if he sits” to show. This page showed who gained while his absence was modeled earlier this season; that table returns whenever the model covers him again. His status and injury history below are current.

What the data says happens
Measured across every regular-season game from 2018 onward, each beneficiary compared against his own trailing four-game form and net of what the same players do in weeks the room’s number one actually plays.
| Room | Receptions gained | n | t |
|---|---|---|---|
| Receivers | +0.584 | 1,537 | 11.16 |
| Tight ends | +0.175 | 1,080 | 3.33 |
| Backs | +0.113 | 1,011 | 2.00 |
The room total is predictable. Which player takes it is not. Every candidate predictor of who gains — pecking order, snap share, route depth, trailing targets — correlates at roughly r = 0.02. In any single week one player usually takes about 60% of what was vacated; it is simply not predictably the same one.
