2024 Fantasy Outlook
Douglas was one of the few bright spots on a broken Patriots offense in 2023, drawing at least five targets in every game he played from Week 7 on. He had seven games with at least 40 yards out of the 14 he played. though he topped 55 yards just twice (84, 74), mostly settling for short gains and failing to score even a single TD. Douglas played both inside and outside as a rookie last year, but at 5-8, 192, he's probably a better fit in the slot long term. As much as he looks like a gem of a sixth-round pick, his considerable role in 2023 was at least partially a product of the Patriots lacking other options. They're hoping 2024 second-round pick Ja'Lynn Polk and fourth-rounder Javon Baker can take care of that, and they also brought in former Vikings No. 3 receiver K.J. Osborn and re-signed Kendrick Bourne (who is rehabbing an ACL tear). Competition for roles should be wide open under the new coaching staff, with Douglas a candidate to land anywhere between first and fifth on the depth chart. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Four grabs in Sunday's win
Douglas caught four of five targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Neither offense saw much success Sunday, but Douglas at least tied for the Patriots' lead in receptions with Kayshon Boutte, Douglas' 50 yards were his highest total since Week 6, and on the season he sports a modest 39-356-1 line on 53 targets through 10 games. The switch to rookie Drake Maye under center gives the New England passing attack more upside, but so far Douglas hasn't benefitted on a consistent basis. The slot receiver could make a bigger impact in Week 11 against the Rams.

Denver's Courtland Sutton and Tennessee's Calvin Ridley have overcome slow starts to the season, finally taking advantage of prolific volume the past three weeks.
Audric Estime got off to a strong start this past Sunday and pushed Javonte Williams aside, leading the Denver backfield in snaps and carries by a comfortable margin.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Douglas was the second of two wide receivers selected by the Patriots in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, so the Liberty product isn't a lock to make the team's initial roster. If he does stick, the 5-8, 170-pounder has the quickness to potentially emerge as a slot option for the team, as well as contribute as a returner. For now, though, Douglas is clearly behind JuJu Smith-Schuster, DeVante Parker, Tyquan Thornton and Kendrick Bourne on the depth chart and also has to jostle for slotting with fellow rookie Kayshon Boutte.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Frustrated with role
Douglas is frustrated due to his lack of targets through two games, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Douglas had a relatively productive rookie season, particularly in the latter half of the campaign, when he topped 50 receiving yards three times in the final seven games. So far in 2024, he's earned only three targets with two catches for 12 yards across two contests. Following Sunday's overtime loss to the Seahawks, Douglas noted that he's still getting open but is not getting delivered targets. The Patriots are likely to run a conservative offense, so Douglas may find it difficult to consistently post quality stats.
