The Atlanta Falcons signed free-agent veteran wide receiver and returner Ray-Ray McCloud to a two-year deal worth up to $6 million on Thursday, according to a source. The Falcons have added McCloud and Darnell Mooney through free agency this week and Rondale Moore via trade to give the team much better speed and receiving depth behind No. 1 wideout Drake London. McCloud, 27, is known more for his returning skills on special teams and has just 90 receptions (134 targets) for 767 receiving yards and one touchdown in his six years in the NFL with the Niners, Bills, Panthers and Steelers. Buffalo's former sixth-round pick in 2018 out of Clemson will compete for a depth role at the receiver position in Atlanta this summer while also being a candidate to return kicks. He's off the fantasy radar.

San Francisco 49ers WR Ray-Ray McCloud ended up with three receptions for 22 yards on four targets in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) and fullback Kyle Juszczyk (illness) are active for Week 18 versus the Los Angeles Rams. Both players had been listed as questionable. McCloud was limited in practice all week long while Juszczyk was a late addition on Saturday. Fantasy managers shouldn't rely on either player this Sunday, though McCloud could sneak onto the fantasy radar if the 49ers limit snaps for Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel.

San Francisco 49ers TE Ross Dwelley (ankle) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list, and WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) was activated from the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Jan. 6. Also, DB Tayler Hawkins and RB Jeremy McNichols were elevated from the practice squad.

San Francisco 49ers DT Arik Armstead (foot, knee), S Ji'Ayir Brown (knee), TE Ross Dwelley (ankle), S Tashaun Gipson (quadriceps) and CB Ambry Thomas (hand) did not participate in practice Friday, Jan. 5, and have been ruled out for Week 18. OG Jon Feliciano (back) and WR Jauan Jennings (concussion) were limited during practice and are listed as questionable. WR Danny Gray (shoulder) and WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) fully participated in practice but are listed as questionable. DE Nick Bosa (non-injury), OT Trent Williams (non-injury), OT Jaylon X. Moore (concussion) and OG Aaron Banks (toe) fully participated in practice and are not on the injury report.

The San Francisco 49ers opened the 21-day practice window for wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (ribs) to return from Injured Reserve on Wednesday and he was a full participant in practice. McCloud initially landed on Injured Reserve on Dec. 9. The 49ers now have 21 days to decide whether to officially activate the 27-year-old pass-catcher from IR. They won't be in any rush, as they'll have a first-round bye in the wild-card round of the playoffs next week before returning to action in the Divisional Round. San Fran also plays the Los Angeles Rams in a meaningless Week 18 game this Sunday, so it's possible McCloud could return for that. Even if he plays this weekend, McCloud won't be an option in fantasy lineups, as he's caught only nine passes for 113 yards and no touchdowns in 11 games this year.

San Francisco 49ers WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) was designated to return from the Reserve/Injured list on Wednesday, Jan. 3.

San Francisco 49ers WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) will have his 21-day practice window opened this week, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. McCloud is currently on the Reserve/Injured list.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (ribs) has been placed on the injured reserve on Saturday. This comes after McCloud was already declared out for the upcoming Week 14 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The 27-year-old hasn't made much of an impact this season. He has nine receptions for 113 yards and zero touchdowns this season. In his absence, wideout Chris Conley will replace him on the active roster. The 49ers are fairly healthy right now, so Conley won't be worth a look as a streaming option this weekend.

San Francisco 49ers WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list, and WR Chris Conley was signed from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Dec. 9. Also, S Erik Harris and RB Jeremy McNichols were elevated from the practice squad.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (ribs) won't suit up in Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. The 27-year-old didn't play in the Week 13 win over the Eagles. While he managed to practice in a limited capacity on Wednesday, he sat out on Thursday and Friday. Nonetheless, McCloud has only nine catches for 113 yards (no touchdowns) throughout the 2023-24 campaign. With Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel available in Week 14, McCloud wouldn't have been a viable fantasy option anyway.

San Francisco 49ers DE Arik Armstead (foot, knee), TE Ross Dwelley (ankle) and WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) did not participate in practice Friday, Dec. 8, and have been ruled out for Week 14. OG Spencer Burford (knee), CB Darrell Luter Jr. (hamstring) and RB Elijah Mitchell (knee) did not practice and are listed as doubtful. OT Trent Williams (non-injury) fully participated in practice and is not on the injury report.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's team practice. McCloud missed last week's game due to a rib issue, but his return to the practice field on Wednesday is a big sign for his availability on Sunday. He'll have two more chances to upgrade his practice status before the 49ers take on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 14. If McCloud does return this weekend, he doesn't carry much fantasy value as the team's WR4. The 27-year-old has just nine catches for 113 yards this season.

San Francisco 49ers WR Ray-Ray McCloud (rib) suffered a rib injury in Week 13 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III (rib) is officially inactive for Week 13 versus the Philadelphia Eagles. He had been listed as questionable. The 27-year-old has contributed a flurry of big plays on offense this season, but most of his contributions have been on special teams, where his absence will be felt. Ronnie Bell will likely return punts and kicks in his absence.
