Isaiah Bond - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Logs limited practice Bond (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bond did not practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for Week 10, so it's encouraging to see him handling limited reps Wednesday. With Cedric Tillman (lower body) having been activated from IR and potentially gearing up to retake the field Sunday versus the Ravens, however, Bond could be relegated to the No. 3 receiver role even if healthy.

Won't play this week Bond (foot) won't play Sunday against the Jets, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact With Bond sidelined and thus targeting a return to action Nov.16 against the Ravens, fellow WRs Jerry Jeudy, Jamari Thrash and Gage Larvadain are candidates to see added snaps Sunday. Additionally, Cedric Tillman (hamstring, questionable) is expected to be activated off IR ahead of Week 10 action, and if that occurs, he could immediately step into a key role in Cleveland's passing offense.

Appears to be absent again Bond (foot) wasn't spotted at practice Friday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bond hasn't practiced in any capacity all week, so he will presumably be ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets when the Browns post their injury report later Friday. The rookie wide receiver has 11 catches for 123 yards on 30 targets.

Another DNP on Thursday Bond (foot) isn't practicing Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

Impact Bond has missed each of Cleveland's first two practices this week, suggesting a Week 9 bye hasn't provided him enough time to recover. The rookie wide receiver seems to be trending toward missing Sunday's game against the Jets, though a return to practice Friday would change that narrative.

Misses practice with foot injury Bond (foot) is not slated to practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bond sustained a foot injury during Cleveland's loss to the Patriots in Week 8 and is still not back to full health after the Browns' bye week. He'll have two more chances to officially get back on the practice field ahead of Sunday's road matchup against the Jets. Cedric Tillman (hamstring) had his 21-day practice window opened Monday, and when he returns to the field Bond will figure to drop down to No. 3 on the wide receiver depth chart.

Tending to injury Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Bond is still recovering from an undisclosed injury he sustained in the team's Week 8 loss to the Patriots, Daniel Oyefusi of ESP...

Impact Following their Week 9 bye, the Browns held an unofficial practice session Monday, and Bond wasn't present on the field. Stefanski said that an update on Bond's condition will be provided later in the week, and the nature of the wideout's injury should be known Wednesday, when Cleveland posts its first Week 10 practice report in advance of Sunday's game at the Jets. Bond had played at least 40 percent of the Browns' last six contests before the bye, but after accruing a 9-112-0 receiving line on 26 targets over the first four of those games, he was held without a catch on four targets in the final two weeks.

NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Diminished snap count again Bond failed to secure any of his four targets in Sunday's 32-13 loss to New England in Week 8.

Impact Bond's 29 snaps were the second most among the wide receivers but also represented diminished playing time for the second consecutive game. He experienced an uptick between Weeks 2 and 6, getting on the field for 67 percent of the offensive snaps, and eventually settled in as the No. 2 when Cedric Tillman (hamstring) landed on injured reserve. However, Bond's snap share dropped to 48 percent the last two weeks, during which he doesn't have a catch. Both Jamari Thrash (24 snaps) and Gage Larvadain (28) hovered in the same range as Bond against the Patriots. Tillman is eligible to return when the Browns resume their season following a Week 9 bye, which should reconfigure the depth chart, but the 2-6 squad, which is clearly focused on the future, needs to see if Bond is a long-term fit.

Snap count drops Week 7 Bond was not targeted in Sunday's 31-6 win over the Dolphins in Week 7.

Impact Bond went untargeted for the first time in 2025 and had his fewest snaps (25, 44.0 percent) since Week 1. He initially flashed as a possible replacement for the injured Cedric Tillman (hamstring), but the drop in usage is noteworthy, although that drop came during a game in which bad weather off Lake Erie limited both teams to 269 combined passing yards. Bond entered the week having averaged 5.5 targets over the previous four games and was on the field for 71 snaps (87 percent) in Week 6.

Disappointing showing against PIT Bond recorded two receptions on five targets for nine yards in Sunday's 23-9 loss to Pittsburgh.

Impact Bond was gaining momentum in the Cleveland offense in recent weeks, but that changed in Sunday's loss. Dillon Gabriel took to the air 52 times, with both Harold Fannin and Jerry Jeudy soaking up targets. Bond was shut out on the stat sheet until early in the fourth quarter and will look to reestablish his role in Week 7 against Miami.

Season-high seven targets Bond caught two of seven targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Vikings in Week 5.

Impact Bond was expected to see an uptick in usage following a hamstring injury to Cedric Tillman that landed him on the injured list last week. Bond was on the field for 40 snaps, which is in line with his volume the two previous weeks, while the seven targets were a season high. The shift at quarterback from Joe Flacco to Dillon Gabriel didn't pan out so well for the wide receivers, which caught five of 13 targets, the fewest that group has logged in five games.

Listed as top punt returner Bond is listed atop the unofficial depth chart as the punt returner ahead of Week 5 against Minnesota.

Impact The Browns had to scramble this week after placing DeAndre Carter (knee) on injured reserve following last week's loss to the Lions. Bond is slated to replace Carter on punts, while Jerome Ford is expected to return kickoffs. Bond had some experience fielding punts in college and earlier this season stepped in for a concussed Carter in Week 2. The added return role, however, is small potatoes compared to what is expected to be a larger profile as a receiver. Cleveland also placed wideout Cedric Tillman (hamstring) on injured reserve, and Bond is expected to see an increased workload on offense.

OCTOBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Looks set for increased workload Bond is positioned for increased opportunities alongside Jerry Jeudy following the placement of Cedrick Tillman (hamstring) on IR, Dan Labbe of cleveland.com reports.

Impact Bond led the Browns with 58 yards during the team's loss to the Lions in Week 4, securing three of six targets. That production came with Tillman playing just 15 offensive snaps due to his hamstring injury, which portends Bond stepping into a key role in his absence, beginning Sunday against the Vikings. Still, even as the clear No. 2 receiver in Cleveland as long as Tillman is sidelined, for Bond to attain consistent fantasy value this passing game will need to take a step forward with rookie third-round pick Dillon Gabriel taking over under center.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 • Associated Press

Leading receiver Sunday Bond caught three of six targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Detroit in Week 4.

Impact Bond had a mini breakout game on a day that No. 2 wideout Cedric Tillman (hamstring) was limited to 15 snaps. The targets and yardage were season highs for Bond, who should leap a spot on the depth chart depending on the severity of Tillman's injury. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, the Browns' offense and passing attack has been anemic through the first quarter of the season, and there may not be any value to be wrung from the team's No. 2 receiver in the short term.

Playing time spikes Week 3 Bond caught two of four targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over Green Bay.

Impact Bond made his first start of the season and was given 43 snaps, nearly as many he had over the first two games. He's gone from 21 snaps in Week 1 to 28 in Week 2 before prior to a big jump in usage Sunday. Bond has emerged as the No. 3 wideout, which potentially has value but not on an offense that has managed to score 15 points per game.

He's gone from 21 snaps in Week 1 to 28 in Week 2 before prior to a big jump in usage Sunday.

Fill-in punt returner Bond caught one of three targets for six yards, had one carry for nine yards and filled in as a punt returner in Sunday's 41-17 loss to the Ravens in Week 2.

Impact Bond added punt-return duties to his responsibilities following an injury to DeAndre Carter (concussion) early in the first quarter. Bond didn't get much work on that front, signaling for a fair catch on the one punt he fielded. While mixing in behind Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman through the first two weeks of the season, Bond has caught two of four targets for 11 yards.
