Dolphins place River Cracraft on IR, Erik Ezukanma on NFI

Both players will miss at least four games.

As the Miami Dolphins prepare for their Week 4 matchup with the Buffalo Bills, they have lost two players for some significant time.

The team announced on Friday that they’ve placed wide receiver River Cracraft on injured reserve and wide receiver Erik Ezukanma on the non-football injury list.

Cracraft went down with a shoulder injury during last week’s win over the Denver Broncos, and McDaniel had mentioned this outcome was a possibility after they got more information, so it’s not a total surprise.

The Ezukanma situation is a bit stranger, as McDaniel mentioned that they were checking on an injury that he had in college during his time at Texas Tech. He’s been on the injury report this week with a neck injury.

Both players will now be forced to miss at least four weeks.
