Demario Douglas hauls in 21-yard pass with one hand to extend Patriots’ drive. He could be a key piece for next season.

Tew England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas remains a viable fantasy football option for Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins. Douglas has maintained a steady role on offense lately, bringing his season totals to 43 catches, 415 yards, and one touchdown.

Callahan: The Patriots can't take Demario Douglas off the field anymore

He’s on pace to break the statistical marks from his rookie campaign last year, both on a full-season and per-game basis. In addition to Douglas’ year-long productivity, he also played quite well in his last matchup against the Dolphins back in Week 5.

During that meeting, Douglas turned in one of his better performances of the season, catching six of nine targets for 59 yards. Miami has allowed the fewest fantasy points to wide receivers this year, but that number is likely skewed from the four-game stretch for which Tua Tagovailoa was sidelined; during that span, opponents adopted a run-heavy approach against the Dolphins and did not have to develop an overly aggressive passing attack.

This Miami team allowed Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp to combine for 16 catches and 178 yards just two weeks ago. Douglas isn’t on the same level as either Rams receiver, but the bottom line is that the Dolphins have shown they aren’t going to shut down every pass-catcher they face (including Douglas when they faced him back on October 6.) Douglas is a viable WR3/FLEX option in fantasy leagues with at least 12 teams.

Douglas secured five of seven targets for 62 yards and rushed once for one yard in the Patriots’ 34-15 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Douglas finished with a co-team-high number of receptions while setting the pace in receiving yards for the Patriots on an unproductive afternoon for the offense overall. The second-year wideout has at least four catches in four consecutive games, and his yardage total Sunday was his highest since Week 6.

Douglas’ next opportunity to continue building rapport with rookie signal-caller Drake Maye comes in a Week 13 home matchup against the Colts.
