Dolphins Activate Wide Receiver Chris Bell From Non-Football Injury List
Bell can return to practice after missing the first weeks of camp, and Miami hopes the 94th overall pick can help the passing game.
- On Monday, the Miami Dolphins activated rookie wide receiver Chris Bell off the non-football injury list, allowing the third-round draft pick to begin practicing after weeks of rehabilitation.
- Bell, a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, suffered a season-ending torn ACL at Louisville last November, landing him on the non-football injury list because the injury occurred before he entered the league.
- Standing 6-foot-2 and weighing 220 lbs., Bell offers a unique physical profile and recorded 2,166 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns in four seasons with the Louisville Cardinals.
- Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said, "Chris is progressing nicely," noting Bell participated in Monday's drills wearing a red, no-contact jersey with potential for preseason reps.
- Activating Bell now eliminates concerns he would miss the first four games of the 2026 regular season, with the team less than four weeks from their Las Vegas Raiders opener.
