Cedric Tillman - Page 7 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Breaks out in Week 7 loss Tillman caught eight of 12 targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Bengals in Week 7.

Impact After Cleveland traded Amari Cooper to Buffalo last week, speculation as to which receiver(s) would pick up the available targets mainly focused on Jerry Jeudy and David Njoku. Tillman, to a lesser degree, was also expected to see a bump in activity, but Sunday's results were off the charts. The 2023 third-round pick out of Tennessee entered the contest with just five targets (three catches) and hadn't been thrown to the previous three games. Whether Tillman will continue to see numbers like this going forward is uncertain, a word that also describes the state of the Browns' quarterback situation. Both Deshaun Watson (Achilles') and Dorian Thompson-Robinson (finger) left the game, leaving Jameis Winston to finish out as the emergency quarterback.

Breaks out in Week 7 loss Tillman caught eight of 12 targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Bengals in Week 7.

Impact After Cleveland traded Amari Cooper to Buffalo last week, speculation as to which receiver(s) would pick up the available targets mainly focused on Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and David Njoku. Tillman, to a lesser degree, was also expected to see a bump in activity, but Sunday's results were off the charts.

Likely to move into starting role Tillman is expected to move into a regular role in three-receiver sets after the Browns traded Amari Cooper to the Bills on Tuesday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Impact Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore (ribs) remain ahead of him on the depth chart and will likely rank as higher priorities in the passing game, but Tillman should move into a starting role for Cleveland with Cooper no longer in the mix. Through the Browns' first six games, Tillman had mustered just three catches for nine yards on five targets while playing 114 total snaps on offense. Even though his playing time is expected to rise, Tillman still looks to be largely off the fantasy radar with struggling quarterback Deshaun Watson having yet to complete more than 25 passes or clear 200 passing yards in any game this season.

One touch in loss Tillman was not targeted and had one carry for minus-5 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia in Week 6.

Impact Tillman's lone touch came on a 3rd-and-1 on the Eagles' side of the field and resulted in a longer field-goal attempt for Dustin Hopkins, who was wide right from 52 yards Tillman, who went untargeted for a third consecutive week, could grab a larger slice of the target pie in Week 7 depending on the status of Elijah Moore (ribs).

Nine target-less snaps in Week 4 Tillman was not targeted over nine snaps in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Raiders.

Impact The snaps were the fewest of the season for Tillman, who had been above 20 the first three weeks. Perhaps his costly drop in a Week 3 loss to the Giants cost him playing time.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One catch, one drop in loss Tillman caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 21-15 loss to the Giants in Week 3.

Impact The ball Tillman didn't catch was costly; he dropped a nicely thrown ball on 4th-and-4, which turned out to the Browns' final play on offense. Tillman had just replaced Amari Cooper, who was shaken up the previous play. If Cooper has a significant injury, that would mean more playing time for Tillman, who has three catches on five targets for nine yards through three weeks.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One grab in win Tillman caught one of two targets for two yards in Sunday's 18-13 win over Jacksonville.

Impact Tillman, who played 26 snaps for the second straight week, had just two of the 27 targets allotted for wideouts in the win. He's locked in at fourth on the depth chart, which means limited targets beyond the Browns' top three of Amari Cooper (eight targets), Jerry Jeudy (six) and Elijah Moore (eight). Tillman has two receptions on three targets for five yards through two games.

One grab in win Tillman caught one of two targets for two yards in Sunday's 18-13 win over Jacksonville.

Impact Tillman, who played 26 snaps for the second straight week, had just two of the 27 targets allocated to wideouts in the win. He's fourth on the depth chart, which means limited opportunities behind Amari Cooper (eight targets), Jerry Jeudy (six) and Elijah Moore (eight). Tillman has two receptions on three targets for five yards through two games.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One target Week 1 Tillman caught his lone target for three yards in Sunday's 33-17 loss to the Cowboys in Week 1.

Impact Tillman served as the fourth wideout, playing 26 snaps, as the Browns leaned heavily on their top three wide receivers. None of the four, which also includes Amari Cooper, Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore, had a good day, but that was mainly due to an ugly performance by quarterback Deshaun Watson (51.1 QB rating).

Four catches in preseason finale Tillman brought in four of five targets for 52 yards in the Browns' 37-33 preseason loss to the Seahawks on Saturday night.

Impact Tillman saw his first target on the first play of the Browns' second possession, with the 2023 third-round pick recording a 23-yard grab from Jameis Winston. Tillman went on to make six- and 19-yard receptions on that drive, putting together a strong finish to the preseason. The Tennessee product generated a modest 21-224 line across 14 regular-season games as a rookie, and he's projected to enter Week 1 operating as Cleveland's No. 4 receiver.

Works with starters Saturday Tillman caught one of two targets for three yards in Saturday's 23-10 preseason loss to the Packers.

Impact While he didn't make much of an impact, Tillman got the start for Cleveland and both his targets came on the team's opening drive with Jameis Winston under center. The offseason addition of Jerry Jeudy (leg) pushed Tillman down the depth chart at wide receiver, but the 2023 third-round pick still has a chance to overtake Elijah Moore for the No. 3 spot before the regular season begins.

Fails to score TD in rookie season Tillman (concussion) finished the 2023 season with 21 catches for 224 yards on 44 targets and added an eight-yard run.

Impact Tillman dressed in 14 games as a rookie and took on a larger role down the stretch before missing the wild-card round playoff loss to the Texans due to a concussion. He's expected to be healthy by the start of the 2024 season, and while the 2023 third-round draft pick out of Tennessee put up underwhelming numbers in his first NFL campaign, he could benefit from more stability at quarterback in his second season. Five quarterbacks started at least one game for the Browns in 2023: Deshaun Watson (shoulder), Dorian Thompson-Robinson (hip), PJ Walker, Joe Flacco and Jeff Driskel.

Won't play Saturday Tillman (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's playoff opener against the Texans, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Impact Tillman, who was forced out of the second half of this past Sunday's loss to Cincinnati due to a concussion, will thus target a potential return to action in the divisional round of the postseason, should Cleveland advance. In his absence, David Bell and/or Marquise Goodwin (knee) are candidates to log added snaps this weekend alongside the team's top wideouts, Amari Cooper (heel) and Elijah Moore.
