The Miami Dolphins entered this offseason with some questions surrounding their wide receiver depth behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Cedrick Wilson.
Yes, they had Erik Ezukanma and Braylon Sanders on the roster, but neither had shown anything promising during the regular season while Trent Sherfield and River Cracraft were hitting free agency.
Luckily, Miami was able to bring back Cracraft this offseason.
According to Over the Cap, Cracraft and the Dolphins agreed to a one-year deal worth $1.08 million. He’ll make all of that in a base salary, but his cap hit is just $940,000.
Due to a lack of guaranteed money, if Miami were to cut Cracraft before the 2023 season, they’d save all $940,000 with no dead cap hit.
This means the 29-year-old will likely enter the offseason program in the same position he was in last year, fighting for a spot somewhere between the depths of the active roster and the practice squad.
