The Miami Dolphins have designated WR River Cracraft to return from injured reserve, per the NFL transaction wire.
This opens a three-week window for him to practice with the team before he has to be added to the active roster.
Miami also signed DT Shakel Brown to the practice squad, per the wire.
Cracraft, 30, wound up signing on to the Broncos’ practice squad in 2017 as an undrafted free agent out of Washington State. He was released shortly after with an injury settlement but returned at the end of the season to the taxi squad.
From there, Cracraft was on and off the Broncos’ practice squad before eventually signing on to the Eagles’ taxi squad in 2019. Philadelphia brought him back on a futures contract but he eventually joined the 49ers.
Cracraft was on and off of the 49ers’ roster before signing a futures contract with the Dolphins in February of 2022. He was released coming out of the preseason and later signed to their practice squad before being promoted in September. Miami re-signed him to a one-year deal each of the past two offseasons.
In 2023, Cracraft appeared in 10 games for the Dolphins and recorded nine receptions on 12 targets for 121 yards (13.4 YPC) and one touchdown.
