The Miami Dolphins are bringing back wide receiver River Cracraft for the 2023 season.

Cracraft is returning on a one-year deal, according to a league source.

In his first season with the Dolphins, Cracraft set career highs with 11 games played, 14 targets, nine receptions, 102 yards and two touchdowns. He began the season as a practice squad player that was elevated for Miami’s first three games before earning a full-time spot on the active roster the rest of the year.

Cracraft rejoins a receiving corps that is led by Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and added former UM standout and ex-New York Jet Braxton Berrios on Thursday. Miami also has Cedrick Wilson Jr. and second-year player Erik Ezukanma under contract, along with Freddie Swain and Braylon Sanders. Trent Sherfield is a free agent.

Cracraft was also with coach Mike McDaniel and receivers coach Wes Welker in 2020 and 2021 with the San Francisco 49ers. He started his NFL career with the Denver Broncos in 2018 and 2019 after going undrafted out of Washington State.
