Caleb Douglas appeared in an NFL game for the first time on Sunday. He and Chris Bell started at wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins at the start of the season against the Las Vegas Raiders. Douglas struggled early. Later, Malik Willis connected with him for a 25-yard gain. The Dolphins kept their most veteran receiver out of the opener. That gave the receiving roles to a youthful unit. The team used a youthful receiving group. That group generated interest as potential waiver-wire pickups before the game. The young group took center stage. Analysts suggested the group could stand out as rookie receivers. Douglas's only reception counted in the stat sheet for 25 yards.
