Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Ends 2023 season without a catch
Kroft was not targeted across eight regular-season appearances with the Dolphins in 2023.
Kroft ended the 2023 campaign as a healthy scratch for Miami's final four games, including Saturday's wild-card playoff loss to the Chiefs. The veteran tight end had never previously finished a season without a catch. Now heading into his 10th NFL season off a forgettable one-year stint with the Dolphins, Kroft seems unlikely to draw interest as more than a depth option on the free agent market.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Inactive Sunday
Kroft (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
The Dolphins are keeping their first three tight ends, Durham Smythe, Julian Hill and Tanner Conner, active for the matchup instead. Kroft played six offensive snaps in Miami's Week 12 win over the Jets, his highest total of the season. The ninth-year pro does not have a catch in 2023.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Good to go
Kroft (back) will be available for Sunday's game in Buffalo, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Kroft practiced in limited fashion four consecutive days to kick off the week before logging a full workload Friday. Barring any setbacks, he is set to return from a one-game absence and back up Durham Smythe at tight end.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Out for Week 3
Kroft (back) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.
Kroft was able to participate in all practice sessions this week, albeit in a limited fashion, and has not progressed enough to suit up for Week 3. Durham Smythe -- who finished with three catches for 23 yards against the Patriots in Week 2 -- is once again in line to receive the lions share of tight end snaps against Denver.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Listed as questionable
The Dolphins have listed Kroft (back) as questionable for Sunday's tilt against the Broncos.
Kroft was a limited participant at practice all week and appears to be a true game-time decision. Julian Hill (ankle) is also questionable, leaving Durham Smythe the team's only healthy tight end at the moment. More clarity on Kroft's status will come Sunday morning.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Re-signed by Dolphins
Miami re-signed Kroft on Thursday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
The Dolphins needed both Jalen Ramsey (knee) and Robert Jones (knee) to make it through their 53-man roster cut before placing them on injured reserve with the designation to return. As a result, they had to cut Kroft and subsequently re-sign him to the roster after the aforementioned players shifted to IR. The 30-year-old tight end is now set to backup Durham Smythe and Julian Hill at tight end, while also contributing on special teams.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Released by Miami
Kroft was released by the Dolphins on Tuesday.
The veteran tight end signed a one-year deal with the team back in May. Kroft played in 11 games and started four for the 49ers in 2022. The ninth-year pro has suited up for five different franchises and he last caught more than 16 passes in 2017.

Dolphins' Tyler Kroft: Joins Miami TE corps
Kroft has agreed to terms on a one-year deal with the Dolphins, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
In 11 games with the 49ers last year, Kroft worked primarily as a blocker, recording just four catches on five targets for 57 yards, but his best season as a receiver came in 2017 with the Bengals when he produced a 42-404-7 line on 62 targets. He bolsters a Miami tight end corps that also includes Durham Smythe, Eric Saubert, Elijah Higgins and Tanner Conner, but it seems unlikely that the 30-year-old will see enough of an uptick in volume in 2023 to resurface on the fantasy radar.

49ers' Tyler Kroft: Used primarily as blocker in 2022
Kroft finished the regular season with four receptions for 57 yards over 11 active games.
Kroft was brought to San Francisco to provide blocking help as a backup tight end, and he stuck in that role almost exclusively all season. The 30-year-old has never been a fantasy contributor, and that's unlikely to change at this point of his career. Kroft will be an unrestricted free agent in 2023.

49ers' Tyler Kroft: Acts as No. 2 tight end Sunday
Kroft went without a target across 15 snaps on offense in Sunday's 35-7 win over the Buccaneers.
After he was a healthy scratch for the 49ers' Week 12 game against the Saints, Kroft has suited up in the team's last two contests and has returned to the No. 2 role at tight end behind starter George Kittle. Kroft has played a quarter of the snaps on offense in both games, with his snap shares exceeding Charlie Woerner's (five percent in Week 13, 10 percent in Week 14). Meanwhile, Ross Dwelley has dropped to fourth on the depth chart at tight end and has been inactive for both of the past two games.
