WR Cedric Tillman's spot on the roster was up in the air after the team spent first- and second-round picks on receivers. That is no longer the case, as the Browns have reportedly released Tillman on the same day as their matchup with the New England Patriots tonight... In three seasons and 38 games, Tillman has recorded 71 receptions for 833 yards and five touchdowns... Tillman has also missed 10 games over the last two seasons.

Cedric Tillman released by Browns on game day; injury history and draft capital on new WRs sealed his fate.

Browns released Cedric Tillman on game day (August 27, 2026) ahead of their preseason finale against New England Patriots. The move came after Cleveland spent first- and second-round picks on receivers (KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston), making Tillman's roster spot untenable. Despite recording 71 receptions for 833 yards and five touchdowns over three seasons and 38 games, Tillman's injury history—missing 10 games over the last two seasons—and inconsistent production (though he had a brief 2024 blip with 250+ yards and three touchdowns in three games) made him expendable in a crowded receiver room.
