Browns WR Cedric Tillman Ruled Out vs. Lions With Hamstring Injury

The Browns must shuffle receivers at the X spot with no return timeline disclosed.

Overview

  • Tillman exited in the first half after a hamstring injury, spent time in the blue medical tent, briefly returned, then headed to the locker room and was ruled out.
  • He logged two targets and one 6-yard reception before leaving the game.
  • Cleveland reporting described an early Joe Flacco interception that appeared to result from a route expectation mismatch involving Tillman.
  • Tillman entered the day as Cleveland’s No. 2 receiver, carrying 11 catches for 106 yards and two touchdowns and ranking tied for second on the team in targets.
  • Browns Wire reported the team lacks a like-for-like replacement for its big-bodied X receiver and will rotate pass catchers to fill his snaps.
