The Miami Dolphins have made their first signing since the team hired Mike McDaniel as their new head coach.

The team announced Thursday that they’ve signed former San Francisco 49ers wide receiver River Cracraft, who has spent the last two seasons jumping back and forth from the active roster and the practice squad. However, he was waived on January 29 and was never picked back up.

Cracraft went undrafted in 2017 after a decent four-year career at Washington State. He was signed after the draft by the Denver Broncos and was on and off the roster for three seasons. After being waived by the Broncos, he signed with the Eagles practice squad but was never called up.

In his five-year career, the 27-year-old has appeared in 24 games, recording seven receptions for 85 yards. He also did some returning, averaging just 4.7 yards per punt return between Denver and San Francisco.

Cracraft joins his former head coach in Miami and will look for an opportunity to make the roster this summer for a team that has six wide receivers that are set to become free agents.
