  "account": "The Miami Dolphins will be without rookie receiver Caleb Douglas for the upcoming game against Minnesota due to an ankle injury he sustained during the Week 2 loss to San Francisco. Douglas, who has already missed a full week with the same injury, will continue to miss practice and game time as he recovers. Coach Jeff Hafley has emphasized the importance of Douglas staying focused and maintaining his mental sharpness during the absence. Although the Dolphins have other options, including rookie Chris Bell and experienced players Chris Bell and Malik Washington, they are hoping to improve their timing and rhythm with the young receiving corps, particularly in connection with quarterback Malik Willis. With Pro Bowler De'Von Achane out for the season due to a torn ACL, running back Jaylen Wright is expected to take on a more significant role, with Ollie Gordon and either Carlos Washington Jr. or Jarquez Hunter serving as backups.",
