No Timetable for Chris Bell's Return from Knee Surgery
Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said that rookie wide receiver Chris Bell (knee) is without a timetable for his return to the field, per C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald. Bell is recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered in late November while playing his final collegiate season at the University of Louisville. Despite the injury, Miami bet on Bell's long-term upside by selecting him in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft. The 21-year-old may have been drafted higher without the injury concern, as he collected over 1,600 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns across 24 games over his final two seasons at Louisville. The Dolphins enter 2026 with plenty of opportunity in their wide receiver room, but it may be hard for Bell to break through as a rookie without a fully healthy training camp and preseason. Bell's dynasty upside remains high, but his redraft value for 2026 is questionable.
