49ers’ River Cracraft: Downgraded Thursday
River Cracraft (quadriceps) didn’t participate during Thursday’s practiceCracraft suited up in a limited fashion during Wednesday’s practice, but it’s not a good sign that he was downgraded just one day later. The Washington State product was moved up the depth chart in last week’s loss to the Packers as multiple receivers were placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, catching two of his five targets for 13 yards. With Brandon Aiyuk activated off the COVID-19 list and Trent Taylor (back) logging a full practice Thursday, Cracraft could find himself down the depth chart anyhow for Sunday’s game against the Saints, should he be healthy enough to suit up.

River Cracraft was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice due to a quadriceps injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.Cracraft played a whopping 89 percent of the San Francisco 49ers’ offensive snaps in last week’s loss to the Packers, finishing with two receptions for 13 yards on five targets. Even if the quad injury doesn’t prevent him from suiting up Sunday in New Orleans, Cracraft will likely be in store for a substantial role downgrade with the 49ers having returned Brandon Aiyuk from the reserve/COVID-19 list. Kendrick Bourne (COVID-19 list) and Deebo Samuel (hamstring) could also be available to play against the Saints, in which case Cracraft may even find himself on the 49ers’ Week 10 inactive list.
