Cedric Tillman - Page 5 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Missing fourth straight game Tillman (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bengals, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Impact This is the fourth game Tillman will miss after suffering a concussion against the Steelers back on Thursday night football in Week 12. The switch from Jameis Winston to Dorian Thompson-Robinson might subdue what had been a vibrant passing attack with Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore absorbing the majority of the passing volume in Tillman's absence.

Questionable to face Cincinnati Tillman (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman remains in concussion protocol, but the Browns are hopeful he'll be able to play, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Tillman has missed three straight games after being concussed in Week 12 against the Steelers. If cleared to play Sunday, he steps right back into a prominent role and plus matchup versus Cincinnati. However, the quarterback switch from Jameis Winston to Dorian Thompson-Robinson is a significant downgrade.

Still limited at practice Tillman (concussion) remained limited at practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman, who last played in Week 12, now has one more chance to practice fully ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. Either way, Friday's final injury report will reveal whether he heads into the weekend with an injury designation or cleared to return to action this weekend. If Tillman remains sidelined versus Cincinnati, however, Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and Michael Woods would be in line to lead the Browns' Week 16 wide receiver corps.

Practices but still in protocol Tillman (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman has missed Cleveland's past three games, and while Wednesday's limited session was a step in the right direction, he has yet to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, per Cabot. Coach Kevin Stefanski expressed optimism Monday regarding Tillman's chances of suiting up Sunday against the Bengals, but even if Tillman returns, the 2023 third-round draft pick would be tough to trust in fantasy with the Browns shifting to Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center.

Could return to action Week 16 Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday he's "hopeful" that Tillman (concussion) will be available for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Tillman has missed three consecutive games while progressing though the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, but it appears that he's trending in the right direction for Week 16. Stefanski offered similar optimism regarding the status of tight end David Njoku (hamstring), who missed Week 15's loss to the Chiefs. Getting both Tillman and Njoku on the field would provide a notable boost to Cleveland's receiving corps behind Jerry Jeudy, a development that would be particularly helpful with Nick Chubb (foot) having suffered a season-ending fracture.

Won't play Sunday Tillman (concussion) will be out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com and Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram report.

Impact Per Petrak, coach Kevin Stefanski relayed Friday that Tillman -- who practiced in a limited capacity this week -- didn't clear the NFL's concussion protocol. With Tillman still sidelined and tight end David Njoku (hamstring) listed as questionable, the Browns' top healthy pass catchers heading into the weekend are Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Remains limited Thursday Tillman (concussion) was limited at practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman was also limited Wednesday, but he'll have one more chance to practice fully before Week 15 injury designations are assigned. Tillman has missed the Browns' last two games, but his ability to practice, albeit in a limited fashion, suggests that he has a chance to gain clearance to suit up Sunday against the Chiefs.

DECEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

In line for limited practice Tillman (concussion) is slated to return to practice on a limited basis Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman has missed the past two games, but after not practicing last week the wideout's return to practice Wednesday, albeit in a limited capacity, has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Tillman's potential return arrives at an opportune time, with fellow key pass catcher David Njoku dealing with a hamstring issue that could impact his Week 15 status.

DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Participating in practice Wednesday Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday that Tillman (concussion) will participate in practice, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Impact Tillman has missed Cleveland's last two games and didn't practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for Week 14, so it's encouraging to see him back on the field Wednesday. In order to suit up Sunday versus the Chiefs, though, Tillman will need to gain full clearance from the NFL's concussion protocol, including from an independent neurologist.

DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still in protocol Tillman remained in the concussion protocol Monday, Patrick Warren of the Browns' official site reports.

Impact Tillman, who missed the last two games due to the concussion, opens the preparation for Week 15 in the same state. While Tillman has been out, Michael Woods was elevated to the third wideout.

DECEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Week 14 Tillman (concussion) is ruled out for Sunday's road matchup against the Steelers, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Impact Tillman hasn't yet resumed practicing since being forced out of Cleveland's loss to Pittsburgh back in Week 12 due to a concussion. setting him up to miss a second straight contest. Tillman's absence will leave Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore in position to operate as Jameis Winston's top two wideouts versus the Steelers on Sunday. Michael Woods will figure to be elevated from the practice squad and may be the favorite for the No. 3 role, especially with Jamari Thrash (shoulder) listed as questionable.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sidelined at practice Friday Tillman (concussion) is not participating in Friday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman hasn't yet progressed to the stage of the concussion protocol that involves returning to practice as a limited participant, which makes him a likely candidate to miss Sunday's divisional matchup against the Steelers. Cleveland's official practice report Friday will reveal whether or not the team has made the decision to rule Tillman out for Week 14, or if he has a chance to work to gain clearance through the weekend. If Tillman can't go, Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore will work as Jameis Winston's top wideouts, with Jamari Thrash (shoulder) and practice-squad man Michael Woods competing for No. 3 reps.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Thursday Tillman (concussion) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman was also deemed a non-participant in Wednesday's walk-through, which puts the focus on what he's able to do (if anything) during Friday's session in terms of his status for Sunday's game against the Steelers. If Tillman -- who was inactive in Week 13 -- remains sidelined this weekend -- added targets would be available for fellow WRs Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore (shoulder) as well as TE David Njoku.

Set log 'DNP' Wednesday Tillman (concussion) is in line to be listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The Browns are holding a walk-through Wednesday, so what Tillman is able to do during Thursday's session will provide more context regarding his chances of playing Sunday against the Steelers. According to head coach Kevin Stefanski, Tillman -- who was inactive in Week 13 -- has "a chance"to play this weekend. In his absence versus the Broncos this past Monday, fellow WRs Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore combined to rack up 27 targets.

DECEMBER 1, 2024 • CLEVELANDBROWNS.COM

Not able to play Monday Tillman (concussion) was ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Broncos, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Even with the extra few days, Tillman was unable to clear concussion protocol after suffering the injury in last Thursday's win over the Steelers. Jerry Jeudy absorbed some of the workload in Tillman's absence last week, but slot target Elijah Moore might be tasked with more looks given Denver's star cornerback Patrick Surtain will likely follow Jeudy around most of the evening.

Another DNP on Friday Tillman (concussion) remained a non-participant in practice Friday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Tillman has logged back-to-back DNPs, so he's trending toward sitting out Monday against the Broncos after being concussed in last Thursday's 24-19 win over the Steelers. He'll have one more opportunity to take the practice field Saturday, but Tillman would have to log a full practice and gain clearance from an independent neurologist to have a chance to exit the NFL's five-step concussion protocol prior to Monday's game.

NOVEMBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Estimated as DNP on Thursday Tillman (concussion) was deemed a non-participant in practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Tillman's DNP isn't a surprise, as head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that the wideout is still in concussion protocol. Tillman has an extra day to clear the league's five-step protocol with Cleveland playing against Denver on Monday Night Football, but his status is nonetheless in doubt for that contest. If Tillman can't suit up against the Broncos, Elijah Moore could get more targets and Jamari Thrash could log more snaps on offense.

NOVEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still in concussion protocol Tillman remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, per head coach Kevin Stefanski, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Tillman suffered a concussion in last Thursday's win over the Steelers, but with the wideout still in the protocol, his status will need to be monitored as Monday night's game against the Broncos approaches. Added context regarding Tillman's Week 13 status will arrive via Thursday's practice report, but if he isn't cleared to face Denver, Jamari Thrash would be a candidate to log added WR snaps behind Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.

NOVEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Diagnosed with concussion Tillman was diagnosed with a concussion during Thursday's 24-19 win over the Steelers, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Tillman exited the game late in the third quarter and was evaluated for a head injury. He will have 11 days to clear concussion protocol, as the Browns won't play until Monday night in a Week 13 matchup against the Broncos.

Cedric Tillman injury vs Steelers: Latest news on Browns WR Browns WR Cedric Tillman is dealing with a head injury. Here are the latest updates.

NOVEMBER 22, 2024 • USATODAY.COM

Being evaluated for head injury Tillman is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Steelers due to a head injury, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

Impact Tillman took a hard hit late in the third quarter, which was presumably when he suffered the injury. The exact diagnosis is unclear at this time. Prior to his exit, Tillman recorded two receptions on four targets for 28 yards and also lost a fumble.

NOVEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Notches three catches in Week 11 Tillman gathered in three of eight targets for 47 yards during Sunday's 35-14 loss at New Orleans.

Impact Prior to the Browns' Week 10 bye, Tillman surpassed 75 receiving yards in three straight games en route to a cumulative 21-255-3 line on 32 targets. The volume still was there for the second-year receiver as QB Jameis Winston aired it out 46 times, but Jerry Jeudy (6-142-1 on 11 targets), David Njoku (9-81-0 on nine targets) and Elijah Moore (6-66-1 on eight targets) were the main beneficiaries this time around. Cleveland has a quick turnaround Thursday against a tough Steelers defense, so Tillman may have his work cut out for him to produce Week 12.
