Caleb Douglas Injury News & Updates

Douglas announced Wednesday that he intends to enter the NCAA transfer portal, Nick de la Torre of On3.com reports.

After two seasons with Florida, Douglas will look for a change of scenery. The 6-foot-3 wide receiver had an injury-plagued 2023 season in which he was miss multiple games. Across five games, he totaled 11 receptions for 133 yards and one touchdown.

Douglas (lower leg) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against FSU, Nick de la Torre of On3.com reports.

The sophomore wide receiver is set to miss his seventh consecutive game to a lower leg injury. Douglas will miss the final game of the regular season but can hopefully recover in time for bowl season.

Douglas (lower leg) is listed out for Saturday's game against Missiouri, Graham Hall of 247Sports.com reports.

Douglas will miss his sixth consecutive game, as he continues to work back from injury. The sophomore wide receiver could still play before the season ends, hopefully in next week's game against Florida State.

Douglas (lower leg) will not play Saturday at LSU, Graham Hall of 247Sports.com reports.

Douglas is set to miss his fifth consecutive game Saturday with a lower leg injury. In his first five games of the season he caught 11 passes for 133 yards and a touchdown. His next chance to play is at Missouri next Saturday.

Douglas (lower leg) was not listed on the Gators' depth chart for Saturday's contest against Arkansas, per Scott Carter of FloridaGators.com.

Douglas has been sidelined since suffering a lower-leg injury during the loss to Kentucky on Sept. 30. He was initially expected to miss 4-to-6 results while recovering from this injury, but it looks like his timetable for a return could air on the longer end. With Douglas slated to remain out, expect Eugene Wilson and Kahleil Jackson to continue playing larger roles alongside top wideout Ricky Pearsall this coming Saturday against the Razorbacks.

Douglas (lower leg) is out four-to-six weeks because of a leg injury, Kevin Brockway of The Gainesville Sun reports.

Based on Douglas' updated timetable, it is looking like he will sit out all of October to recover from his lower-leg injury. Florida's updated depth chart suggests Kahleil Jackson is next in line for starting opportunities until Douglas recovers. On the plus side, at least the Gators are expected to get him back some time in November.

Douglas suffered a significant lower leg injury in Saturday's 33-14 loss at Kentucky, Jacob Rudner of 247Sports reports.

Douglas is expected to miss an extended period of time due to a lower leg injury he suffered in Saturday's loss to Kentucky. Head coach Billy Napier does not believe it will require surgery but still expects to go without Douglas for a while. Douglas caught 10 passes for 99 yards and a touchdown in four games this season.

Douglas has been listed as a starter for Thursday's season opener against Utah, Graham Hall of 247Sports reports.

Douglas has been dealing with an undisclosed issue throughout fall camp, but he appears likely to suit up for Florida's season opener. The 6-foot-3 sophomore has worked his way into a starting role in his second season with the program, and he will be in line for an expanded workload in 2023 (10 receptions for 175 yards and two touchdowns in 2022).

Douglas was a non-contact participant in the Gators' team practice Wednesday, Jacob Rudner of 247Sports.com reports.

Douglas was able to contact work during Florida's fall practices before Wednesday, so it is unclear why his availability was downgraded then. For now, his availability is slightly questionable heading into the 2023 Gators' Aug. 31 opener at Utah.
