Douglas (shoulder) isn't listed on the Patriots' Week 1 injury report released Wednesday.
The rookie sixth-round pick was one of New England's summer standouts and is now expected to begin the regular season somewhere between third and fifth in the pecking order at wide receiver. Even if he's a backup initially, Douglas could get his shot in a top-three role soon enough, given that New England's trio of veteran wideouts -- JuJu Smith-Schuster, DeVante Parker and Kendrick Bourne -- is neither formidable nor reliable.
