Training camp for the Miami Dolphins has helped shine light on potential standouts at each position. As far as wide receivers go, rookie Caleb Douglas is trying to become a name to remember within the list of available offensive weapons for Miami.Another rookie is battling hard for different reasons. Chris Bell is still recovering from a torn ACL and has ways to go before putting on the pads. Whether that happens during the preseason or after is unclear. Despite their different directions, both players have shown potential, according to general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan. During a conversation on The Joe Rose Show, he highlighted what Douglas and Bell can provide to a wide receiver room that's desperately looking for a breakout star. And if things work out the way the Dolphins hope, Bell and Douglas will be WR1 and WR2 before too long — and for a long time.Way Ahead Of ScheduleDouglas has shown high levels of production after 10 practices during training camp, making his case to be a major contributor off the rip.Sullivan is excited about his set of skills, which conveniently line up with the positives of his draft profile before Miami selected him with the 75th overall pick in the third round. Combine that with a level of confidence despite being 23, and there's a lot of upside. "Caleb has a lot of natural gifts," Sullivan said. "That was what attracted us to him in the draft process. It's the body type. He's tall, he's long, he can run. The thing that he can do for a tall, long athlete is he can bend. He can get in and out of breaks. He's got extremely quick feet."The Profile Is Being Proven RightSullivan isn't joking about his height. Listed as 6-4, he's tied for being the tallest wide receiver on the roster alongside rookie free agent Donaven McCulley. He made the most of his slender frame at the NFL Combine, boasting a 79-inch wingspan while still running a 4.39 40-yard dash — the rare combo of speed and size that, as Sullivan noted, was a big reason the Dolphins bought into Douglas. Douglas' athleticism was the biggest positive in his draft profile. One of the biggest negatives, however, was dropped passes in 2025 with Texas Tech. While there have been some drops by Douglas during training camp, this is par for the course when learning the ins and outs of professional football, according to Sullivan."He's honing his craft," Sullivan said. "He's getting better every day. He's learning that this is the National Football League, not the Big 12. Because of some of the hard lessons he's learned early on, he's starting to reap the benefits. And that's what you're seeing.”The Road To Recovery Is LongBell's recovery has been brutal, but it is coming along nicely, according to Sullivan. There's no clear date for when he can return to action on the field, but Miami will be patiently waiting for his return. "He's ahead of schedule," Sullivan said. "I'm not here to put a timetable on it because I don't think it's fair to the kid. He's working extremely hard. I can't say enough good things about (head athletic trainer) Kyle Johnson, his staff, and what they've done to get him to where he is today. We're excited about him. I think that goes without saying."In previous practices, there have been positive signs of progress that line up with Sullivan saying he's ahead of schedule. He has been seen running routes, even though offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik assured the media that he has ways to go. Miami knew the risks of drafting Bell with the 94th overall pick in the third round. Bell had his most productive season with Louisville in 2025 with 917 yards and six touchdowns, but it was cut short due to that torn ACL in November.A Threat When He's At 100%The positives for Bell, when healthy, are plentiful. Being compared to A.J. Brown is no joke. At 220 pounds, he's the heaviest wide receiver on offer for the Dolphins, thanks in part to his NFL-ready frame. He's a hard receiver to bring down, but he can build up speed to break away from defenders when given open grass. Unfortunately, there might not be a time during the preseason, or even early on in the regular season, to confirm that he'll fit into the NFL like a glove. Sullivan is fine with this, however, citing the need for a player like Bell long-term, which means giving him all the time he needs now to heal. "I don't want to put pressure on the kid," Sullivan said. "We want him out there as soon as possible, but this is long-term big picture thinking in terms of getting him back out there. We expect him to be a really good player for this offense for years to come. So, I'd rather be a week too late than a week too early.”Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
