INJURIES

Let go by Green Bay The Packers cut Woods from the practice squad Tuesday.
Impact Woods joined the Packers' practice squad in early November after being let go with an injury settlement by the Browns in August due to a hand injury. The 25-year-old wideout has not appeared in a regular-season game since Week 17 of the 2024 season as a member of the Browns. He'll look to catch on with a team in need of pass catching depth, likely as a member of the practice squad.

Joins Packers The Packers signed Woods to the practice squad Tuesday.
Impact Woods was last with the Browns for a short period during training camp but was ultimately waived from injured reserve. He has 12 career receptions across 17 games since entering the NFL in 2022, but he faces a long path to consistently being on the active roster in Green Bay.
NOVEMBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Works out for Houston Woods (hand) worked out for the Texans on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Impact Woods suffered a knee injury at the end of last season and then picked up a hand injury early on in Browns camp this summer. He was eventually let go with an injury settlement last month but appears to be healthy headed into the regular season. Now a free agent, Woods is looking for a new opportunity.
SEPTEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Reaches injury settlement The Browns waived Woods (hand) from injured reserve after the two sides reached an injury settlement, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Impact The injury settlement allows Woods to play in the upcoming season, which wouldn't have been a possibility had he remained on the Browns' IR. The 2022 sixth-rounder appeared in five regular-season games for the Browns last season and posted seven catches (on 18 targets) for 65 yards. Woods will continue to rehab from his hand injury and explore his next options once he's fully recovered.
AUGUST 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Reverts to injured reserve Woods (hand) reverted to the Browns' injured reserve list Thursday, per the NFL's transactions log.
Impact Woods was injured in practice last week and was later waived with an injury designation. He'll now be required to miss the entirety of the regular season but could be let go with an injury settlement once healthy. Woods played in five regular-season games for the Browns last season, catching seven passes for 65 scoreless yards.
JULY 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Let go by Cleveland The Browns waived Woods (hand) with an injury designation Wednesday.
Impact Woods suffered a hand injury during this past Thursday's training camp practice. He will no longer be a part of the Browns' training camp roster, but if he clears waivers, he'll revert to injured reserve and be forced to sit for the entire 2025 season unless an injury settlement is reached. Woods spent most of last season on Cleveland's practice squad but did play in the final five games of the regular season, posting seven catches (on 18 targets) for 65 yards.

Browns place CB Martin Emerson Jr. on injured reserve Browns also waived WR Michael Woods II with an injury designation

Nursing hand injury Woods did not participate in Thursday's practice due to a hand injury, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact The severity of the injury isn't clear, but Woods will likely be limited to rehab and individual drills until he's progressed enough in his recovery. The 2022 sixth-rounder is competing for a depth spot in the team's wide receiver corps, so he'll look to be available for the Browns' first preseason game against the Panthers on Aug. 8.
JULY 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to the gridiron Woods (knee) was spotted participating in Thursday's practice, Joshua Gunter of Cleveland.com reports.
Impact The 2022 sixth-round pick from Oklahoma missed the Browns' 2024 season finale due to a knee injury, but his participation during Thursday's OTAs suggests he's now past the issue. Woods appeared in five games with Cleveland last season, catching seven of his 18 targets for 65 yards across 291 offensive snaps. Now fully healthy, he's expected to compete for a depth spot in the team's wide receiver room throughout the summer.
MAY 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Enters final year of rookie deal Woods (knee) recorded seven catches on 18 targets for 65 yards over five games played for the Browns in 2024.
Impact All of Woods' playing time came during a five-week stretch between Weeks 12 and 17, before a knee injury prevented him from suiting up for the regular-season finale. He was on the field a lot during those games, serving as the third wideout for a struggling offense. It was the most playing time he's had in three seasons with Cleveland, which drafted him in the sixth round of the 2022 draft. He enters the final year of his rookie deal and could gain a greater role in 2025, when the Browns are expected to enact change on offense.
JANUARY 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Inactive Saturday Woods (knee) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Ravens.
Impact Woods approached Saturday's contest listed as questionable after being deemed a limited practice participant Tuesday through Thursday. In his absence in Cleveland's season finale, Jamari Thrash, James Proche and Kaden Davis are candidates to see added wideout snaps behind Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
JANUARY 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Receives questionable tag Woods (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game at Baltimore.
Impact Woods was a limited practice participant throughout the week after he emerged from this past Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Dolphins with the knee injury. If Woods is cleared to play Saturday, he would likely operate as the Browns' No. 3 wideout behind Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
JANUARY 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Nursing knee injury Woods was listed as a limited participant in Tuesday's walk-through practice due to a knee injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Impact Woods is nursing the knee injury coming out of the Browns' 20-3 loss to the Dolphins this past Sunday, when he played 68 of 79 snaps on offense en route to finishing with a three-yard reception across four targets. If he's able to move past the knee issue in time for Saturday's season finale in Baltimore, Woods should once again be in line for a top-three role at receiver after the Browns placed Cedric Tillman (concussion) on injured reserve Tuesday.
DECEMBER 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
One catch in loss Woods caught one of three targets for three yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Dolphins in Week 17.
Impact Woods was on the field for 86 percent of the offensive snaps, but once again, the playing time didn't translate into meaningful production. Since being signed to the active roster five games ago, Woods has operated as the de facto third wideout, played 83.1 percent of the snaps, but has just seven catches (18 targets) for 65 yards.
DECEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Shut out in loss Woods did not record a catch on three targets in Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Bengals in Week 16.
Impact Woods has operated as the No. 3 wideout the last four weeks, but there are limitations to his fantasy viability given Cleveland's unsteady quarterback play. He's caught six passes on 14 targets for 62 yards during his spike in playing time. The spike in playing time has been directly related to the unavailability of Cedric Tillman (concussion). Whether Tillman eventually returns or not, Woods will audition over the final two weeks for a spot on what is expected to be an overhauled roster in 2025.
DECEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Two grabs in loss Woods caught two of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 21-7 loss to Kansas City in Week 15.
Impact Woods was once again elevated to No. 3 wideout as Cedric Tillman (concussion) was inactive, and he played 100 percent of the offensive snaps. All that activity didn't translate into meaningful production for Woods, who's been targeted 11 times (once in red zone) in three weeks as Tillman's replacement. The Browns benched starting quarterback Jameis Winston and could let Dorian Thompson-Robinson start the final three weeks, which could alter the target distribution beginning Week 16 at Cincinnati.
DECEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Expected third WR Sunday Woods should maintain his role as the third wide receiver Sunday against the Chiefs, as Cedric Tillman has been ruled out.
Impact Woods has eight targets and played 81.6 percent of the offensive snaps over the last two weeks while filling in for Tillman. Prior to his concussion, Tillman generated 44 targets and three touchdowns over five games, so the third wide receiver carries potential in a Jameis Winston-led offense. The Browns hope to use a more balanced run/pass ratio Sunday and minimize the opportunities for the Chiefs' offense; however, the Browns offense often plays from behind and Winston has averaged 43.2 attempts per game over the last six weeks, including Week 12's snow game against the Steelers.
DECEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Fills in as third wideout Woods caught one of three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 27-14 loss to the Steelers in Week 14.
Impact Woods was elevated to the active roster for a second consecutive game, as Cedric Tillman (concussion) was inactive once again. His 63 snaps were the third-most among all receivers, behind only Jerry Jeudy and David Njoku. Woods has four catches (eight targets) for 55 yards in the two games.
DECEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Signed to active roster The Browns signed Woods from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Impact Woods was elevated to the Browns' active roster for Week 13 against the Broncos, and he finished with three catches (on five targets) for 45 yards while playing 64 snaps on offense. With Cedric Tillman (concussion) ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Woods will likely be on the field for three-wideout sets alongside Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
DECEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back to practice squad Woods reverted to the Browns' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Woods was elevated for Monday's game against the Broncos, and not only was that his 2024 regular-season debut, it was also his first regular-season action since Week 17 of the 2022 campaign. Woods ended with three catches (on five targets) for 43 yards, and his 66 snaps on offense was second-most among Browns wide receivers only behind Jerry Jeudy (78). Woods could be elevated for Week 14 against the Steelers if Cedric Tillman (concussion) is unable to play.
DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Makes season debut Woods caught three of five targets for 43 yards in Monday's 41-32 loss to the Broncos in Week 13.
Impact Woods was elevated from the practice squad and made his season debut. Filling in for an injured Cedric Tillman (concussion), Woods saw his first action since Week 17 of the 2022 season and was the fourth-most targeted Brown in a game where Cleveland quarterback Jameis Winston chucked the ball 58 times. The wideout played 66 snaps and appears to be the preferred option ahead of Jamari Thrash (15 snaps, shoulder), Kadarius Toney (six) and Jaelon Darden (special teams only). Prior to Tillman's concussion, he had been heavily involved in the Winston-led offense, which bodes well for Woods if there are additional opportunities in the final four weeks of the season.
DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Elevated Monday Woods was elevated to the Browns' active roster Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact The Oklahoma product was elevated alongside Kadarius Toney to provide depth at wide receiver for Monday night's matchup against the Broncos, with Cedric Tillman (concussion) and David Bell (hip) both sidelined. Woods last saw regular-season NFL action with the Browns in 2022, appearing in 10 games and catching five of his 10 targets for 45 yards over 144 offensive snaps. He's expected to see minimal offensive work and may contribute on special teams in Week 13.
DECEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back with Browns Woods signed with Cleveland's practice squad Wednesday.
Impact Woods finished the preseason on a high note against the Seahawks on Saturday, when he caught five passes (on nine targets) for 53 yards and two touchdowns. It wasn't enough to push him onto the Browns' 53-man roster, but the 2022 sixth-round wideout will stick around in Cleveland on the taxi squad. He last saw NFL action in his rookie season, when he recorded five catches (on 10 targets) for 45 yards across 10 regular-season games.
AUGUST 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Fails to make 53-man roster The Browns waived Woods on Tuesday, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.
Impact Woods missed all of last season due to a ruptured Achilles injury he sustained in April of 2023. He managed to return for training camp, and he finished the preseason strong with five catches on nine targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns against the Seahawks on Saturday. Despite the good outing, Woods was unable to crack Cleveland's 53-man roster as a depth wide receiver. The 2022 sixth-round pick could return to the team's practice squad if he clears waivers or look for other opportunities elsewhere.
