  • Reclaims depth role at receiver

    Cracraft played 24 of the Dolphins' 61 snaps on offense and recorded two receptions for 16 yards on two targets in Sunday's 45-15 win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Cracraft made his second appearance for Miami since being activated from injured reserve Nov. 14 after a seven-game absence due to a shoulder injury. The 29-year-old is valued for his skills as a blocker when he's on the field, but he doesn't project to see much involvement as a pass catcher while fellow wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are both available.

  • Cleared from injury report

    Cracraft (shoulder) isn't listed on the Dolphins' Week 11 injury report.

    Analysis: Cracraft was returned to the 53-man roster Tuesday, as his 21-day window to practice with the team after being designated to return from injured reserve was nearing an end. While practicing within that 21-day window, the wideout never managed more than limited participation, but he's apparently returned to full activity coming out of the Dolphins' Week 10 bye. With Braxton Berrios (hamstring) and Chase Claypool (knee) both uncertain to play Sunday against the Raiders, Cracraft could immediately…read more

  • Returns from IR

    The Dolphins activated Cracraft (shoulder) from injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: Since Cracraft was designated for return from IR on Oct. 25, his 21-day evaluation window was coming to a close, prompting Miami to add him back to the 53-man roster. Before the Dolphins began their Week 10 bye, Cracraft had been listed as a limited participant in each of the team's Week 8 and 9 practices, an indication that he may not yet be fully recovered from the shoulder injury he suffered in late September. Miami still has six other receivers on the roster, so the team can afford to take…read more

  • Not activated for Week 9

    Cracraft (shoulder) was downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs after the Dolphins didn't activate him from injured reserve Saturday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft was designated for return from IR on Oct. 25 and took part in his second straight week of practices with the Dolphins, though he was nothing more than a limited participant Wednesday through Friday. In order for Cracraft to be eligible to play again this season, the Dolphins will have to activate him from IR and add him back to the 53-man roster following their Week 10 bye.

  • Set to practice Wednesday

    Miami designated Cracraft (shoulder) for return from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: After spending the Dolphins' last four games on injured reserve, it now seems that Cracraft is nearing a return to action ahead of Week 8. Miami's injury reports this week will provide more information regarding his potential availability for Sunday versus New England.

  • Moved to injured reserve

    Cracraft (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Friday.

    Analysis: Cracraft had already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills, but he will miss a minimum of three additional games after being moved to injured reserve. The soonest Cracraft could be activated would be Week 8 against the Patriots.

  • Won't play Week 4

    Cracraft (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Buffalo, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft's absence this weekend comes as no surprise after prior reports suggested that the wide receiver could be a candidate for injured reserve. On the bright side for the Dolphins, all signs point to Jaylen Waddle (concussion) returning against the Bills after he sat out the team's 70-20 win over the Broncos in Week 3.

  • Could be headed to IR

    Cracraft is expected to miss multiple games due to the shoulder injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Broncos, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft could be a candidate for injured reserve, though head coach Mike McDaniel said that the Dolphins are still taking time to assess the wideout's availability for both this Sunday's game against the Bills and beyond. For whatever length of time Cracraft is out, Braxton Berrios would likely have the No. 3 receiver role all to himself.

  • Could miss extended time

    Cracraft (shoulder) is still undergoing tests to find out how long he could be sidelined according to head coach Mike McDaniel, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft suffered the injury in the second quarter of the Dolphins' win Sunday against the Broncos and did not return. Any potential absences moving forward would be made worse if Jaylen Waddle (concussion) were to continue to miss time, although Waddle was able to log a limited practice Friday and seems to be trending in the proper direction. Cracraft's status for Week 4 against the Bills will likely be clearer after test results are in, as well as his status in the team's practice reports in…read more

  • Done for Sunday's game

    Cracraft (shoulder) won't return to Sunday's game against the Broncos, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The severity of the injury Cracraft suffered in the second quarter still isn't fully known, but with the Dolphins taking a 22-point lead into halftime, the team may just be opting to play it safe with the 28-year-old receiver. He'll finish the day with one catch for 13 yards on one target.

  • Tending to shoulder injury

    Cracraft is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Broncos after suffering a shoulder injury in the second quarter.

    Analysis: With Jaylen Waddle (concussion) made inactive for the Week 3 contest, Cracraft appeared headed for an increased role Sunday, but the shoulder issue may end up cutting his afternoon short. He'll likely be evaluated in the locker room during halftime before the Dolphins determine his availability for the second half. Cracraft reeled in his lone target for a 13-yard gain before departing the contest.

  • Secures both targets

    Cracraft secured both of his targets for 34 yards during Sunday's 24-17 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: Cracraft and Braxton Berrios continue to split No. 3 receiver work behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle (concussion), but Miami's passing game wasn't prolific enough in Week 2's divisional win to provide either depth man real fantasy value. It will be worth monitoring Waddle's status for Week 3's game against the Broncos, though, as an absence on his part could boost both Cracraft and Berrios.

  • Scores in opener

    Cracraft secured three of five targets for 40 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 36-34 win over the Chargers.

    Analysis: Cracraft and fellow depth wideout Braxton Berrios were both relatively productive behind top options Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, though it was surprising to see TE Durham Smythe also command seven targets, good for second on the team. The Dolphins may not have to air it out as much to overcome a deficit in Week 2 versus the Patriots, but Cracraft and Berrios could be capable emergency streaming options in deeper fantasy formats.

  • Signs with Miami

    The Dolphins signed Cracraft on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft returns to a Dolphins squad for which he recorded nine catches for 102 yards and two touchdowns while appearing both on offense and special teams in 2022. While the 28-year-old might find himself buried in a crowded receiver room headed into next season, he should still be able to carve out a role for himself on special teams.

  • Free agency looms

    Cracraft secured nine of 14 targets for 102 yards and two touchdowns across 11 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2022.

    Analysis: Cracraft split time with Cedrick Wilson as the No. 4 wideout in Miami's offense during the 2022 campaign, and he's set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. Considering that Cracraft has experience in coach Mike McDaniel's offensive scheme going back to 2021 in San Francisco, though, he could be an option to re-sign with the Dolphins at relatively low cost. Cracraft's 2022 receiving totals signify career-high marks across the board.

  • Returning to action Sunday

    Cracraft (calf) is not on Miami's inactives list for Sunday's Week 17 game against New England.

    Analysis: Cracraft has been battling a calf injury since Week 13 and has missed each of Miami's past three contests. He logged a DNP both Wednesday and Thursday during Week 17 prep but was able to return to practice in a limited fashion Friday. He's since been deemed healthy enough to play Sunday and could slot in as Miami's No. 4 wideout behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield.

  • Questionable vs. Patriots

    Cracraft (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against New England, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft was unable to participate in Miami's first two practice sessions this week, but he returned in a limited capacity Friday and will have a chance to suit up in Week 17. If he remains out, Braylon Sanders could see some playing time once again.

  • Sidelined to start Week 17 prep

    Cracraft (calf) didn't practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft has been held out of three straight games due to a calf injury and remains sidelined to start Week 17 prep. He's trending toward another absence, but he'll have two more opportunities to practice before Miami needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against New England.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Cracraft (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Analysis: With Cracraft (who last suited up in Week 13) still sidelined, Cedrick Wilson and Braylon Sanders are available to handle the wideout reps that don't go to Miami's top three options at the position, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield. Cracraft's next chance to suit up will arrive in Week 17 against the Patriots.

  • Doubtful for Week 16

    Cracraft (calf) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Packers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft was unable to practice at all this week and appears headed for a third consecutive absence. The 28-year-old wide receiver caught six of his seven targets in the two games preceding his injury.

  • Remains sidelined Thursday

    Cracraft (calf) did not participate during the Dolphins' practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Cracraft has now missed back-to-back practices to begin Week 16 prep, so it seems he'll likely miss his third game in a row due to a calf injury. The 28-year-old caught six of seven targets for 84 yards in his last two outings, and he figures to slot in as Miami's No. 4 wideout behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield when available again. Therefore, Cracraft's likely absence should leave increased opportunities for Cedrick Wilson on Christmas Day against the Packers.

    Cracraft (calf) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Bills.

    Analysis: As expected, Cracraft will miss a second straight game due to a calf injury. In his absence, Trent Sherfield and Cedrick Wilson are candidates for increased opportunities behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

  • Doubtful for Week 15

    Cracraft (calf) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Bills, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft did not practice during Week 15 prep, and he is now likely to miss his second game in a row while dealing with a calf injury. The 28-year-old caught six of seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown over two games before sitting out Week 14 versus the Chargers. Should Cracraft remain sidelined against Buffalo, then Trent Sherfield and Cedrick Wilson should see increased opportunities behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

  • Still sidelined

    Cracraft (calf) was a non-participant at practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft has yet to practice this week after failing to play Week 14 against the Chargers. That leaves his Week 15 status in serious doubt, especially considering the Dolphins play Saturday night in Buffalo.

  • DNP on Wednesday

    Cracraft (calf) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft's non-participation estimate was his second in as many days. He is coming off a one-game absence and has not yet started trending in a possitive direction for Saturday's game against the Bills. More clarity on his status will come with Thursday's injury report. If he is ultimately unable to go, Cedrick Wilson and Erik Ezukanma could potentially see some extra snaps in passing situations.

    Cracraft (calf) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft was unable to give it a go Sunday against the Chargers due to a calf issue, and his designation as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimate doesn't bode well for his chances of suiting up this weekend versus the Bills. The 28-year-old will have two more opportunities to return to the practice field in any capacity before he'd carry an injury designation heading into Saturday's contest in Buffalo.

    Cracraft (calf) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup against the Chargers, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft suffered the calf injury during Thursday's practice, and while the extent of the issue remains unclear, he'll be sidelined for at least one contest. In his absence, Cedrick Wilson and Erik Ezukanma are candidates for increased snaps behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield.

  • Logs limited activity

    Cracraft (calf) was limited in Thursday's practice, Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft's appearance on the injury report put his availability for Sunday's Week 14 matchup against the Chargers into question. Fellow wide receiver Tyreek Hill didn't practice Thursday due to an illness, so Cracraft could see an uptick in usage if Hill is unable to suit up against Los Angeles. Friday's injury report should provide further clarification regarding both of the pass-catchers' statuses.

  • Makes two grabs in Week 13 loss

    Cracraft secured two of three targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Cracraft continues to hold down the No. 4 wideout role behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield, the latter of whom opened Sunday's loss with a 75-yard touchdown on Miami's first offensive play. With 13 targets in his last three appearances, Cracraft could find himself on the fantasy radar in deeper leagues, while heading into a Week 14 contest against the Chargers.

  • Impactful in Week 12 win

    Cracraft secured all four of his targets for 55 yards during Sunday's 30-15 win over Houston.

    Analysis: Cracraft was involved in Sunday's gameplan, one that saw Tua Tagovailoa spread the ball around between nine different pass-catchers while still focusing most on Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill (undisclosed), who combined for 19 targets. In seven prior appearances this season Cracraft combined for just two catches, so he's not yet on the fantasy radar, but it's noteworthy to see the 28-year-old so involved Week 12.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Cracraft (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Browns.

    Analysis: Cracraft was limited earlier in the week due to an illness, but he shed that designation after participating in full at practice Friday. The Dolphins instead have decided to dress just four receivers for Sunday's contest with Cleveland, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Trent Sherfield and Cedrick Wilson.

    Cracraft (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

    Cracraft (illness) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft was sidelined for Week 8 due to a neck injury but missed Week 9 due to an illness. He appears to have cleared the neck issue but is still limited due to the aliment. The reserve wideout will have two more opportunities to log a full session before the team needs to make a decision on his status for Sunday's matchup against the Browns.

    Cracraft (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup in Chicago, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft missed the team's Week 8 win over the Lions with a neck injury, but he's been ruled out for Week 9 due to an illness. In his absence, Cedrick Wilson is a candidate for extra offensive snaps against Chicago.

  • Set to join active roster

    The Dolphins are slated to sign Cracraft to their active roster ahead of Thursday night's game against the Bengals, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Cracraft has hauled in a pair of touchdowns already this season, which was enough for the team to elect to elevate him from the practice squad. With Miami struggling to get much out of the WR corps outside of Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill, Cracraft has the opportunity to emerge as the next best option. The Dolphins didn't need to release anyone with the signing, as they had an open spot on their 53-man roster.

  • Heads back to practice squad

    Cracraft reverted to the Dolphins' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Analysis: Cracraft is not eligible for any more elevations from Miami's practice squad after being activated for the team's first three games this season. Though he only played nine offensive snaps, the 27-year-old wideout hauled in an 11-yard touchdown on his lone target during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Bills. Cracraft's performance over the past three weeks may have been enough to secure a depth role on the Dolphins' active roster moving forward.

  • Scores for second straight week

    Cracraft secured his only target for an 11-yard touchdown during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Cracraft has been elevated from the practice squad for all three of Miami's wins this season, with touchdowns in each of the last two weeks. The Dolphins now have to decide whether to sign Cracraft to the active roster, as he's no longer eligible to be a gameday elevation. The 27-year-old has certainly made a case for himself as a depth option.

    Miami elevated Cracraft from its practice squad Saturday for Week 3.

    Analysis: It will be the third consecutive week Cracraft is active for the Dolphins and the last time he's eligible to be elevated from the practice squad before he would have to be signed to the team's active roster in order to play. The 27-year-old wideout has caught one of two targets for two yards through two games this season.

    Analysis: Cracraft was promoted to Miami's active roster ahead of Sunday's win against the Ravens, catching one of his two targets for a two-yard receiving touchdown in the fourth quarter. However, the 27-year-old wideout played an overall limited role as he only lined up on 16 of the team's 71 offensive snaps in Week 2. Cracraft is now eligible for just one more gameday elevation after playing in each of the first two games for the Dolphins, and he could see similar usage in Week 3 if wide receiver…read more

  • Scores first career touchdown

    Cracraft secured one of two targets for two yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 42-38 win over the Ravens.

    Analysis: Cracraft played just 16 offensive snaps Sunday, but he caught one of Tua Tagovailoa's six touchdowns early in the fourth quarter, a key component of Miami's comeback victory. Cracraft still remains off the fantasy radar and is scheduled to revert to the Dolphins' practice squad, but he's making a good argument for a spot on the 53-man roster.

  • Sees limited action in 2020

    Cracraft finished the 2020 season with six receptions for 41 yards on nine targets across nine appearances with the 49ers.

    Analysis: Cracraft began the season on San Francisco's practice squad, but he earned a callup to the roster when the 49ers were in need of more depth at receiver. Even after his promotion, the Washington State product still struggled to make an impact on offense, instead seeing most of his snaps on special teams. Cracraft will be an exclusive rights free agent this offseason, but look for San Francisco to retain him.

    Cracraft caught both targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 41-33 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Cracraft was targeted for the first time since receiving five targets in a Week 9 loss to the Packers. He should remain in the mix with Deebo Samuel (hamstring) still out, but his opportunities will dwindle further if tight end George Kittle (foot) returns to the lineup this week.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old received the questionable tag after practicing as a limited participant Friday, but he's ready to go for Week 10.

In last week's loss to the Packers, he handled an 89 percent snap share and received five targets, but his usage is set to shrink in Week 10 if he's able to play, as Brandon Aiyuk and Kendrick Bourne have both been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

    Cracraft started and was on the field for 89 percent of the 49ers' offensive snaps Thursday, finishing with two receptions (five targets) for 13 yards in a 34-17 loss to Green Bay.

    Analysis: Cracraft was promoted from the practice squad prior to Thursday's contest after a slew of wide receivers were ruled out due to the risk of COVID-19. The 25-year-old was immediately thrust into the starting lineup, only finishing behind the quarterback and offensive linemen in terms of playing time. Cracraft wasn't able to turn the opportunity into a big fantasy day, but the fact that coach Kyle Shanahan deployed him as a starter shows that he could be in line for opportunities if San…read more

The absences of those three players leave Trent Taylor and Richie James (ankle) as the only other wideouts on the 49ers' 53-man roster, and James, who is listed as questionable, isn't considered a lock to play.

    Analysis: Cracraft is expected to make his 49ers debut Sunday against the Seahawks. The team needs depth at wide receiver because Deebo Samuel (hamstring) and Richie James (ankle) have been ruled out, so Cracraft will operate as the No. 5 wide receiver. He could also return kicks if necessary.
