Cedric Tillman Released by Browns Amid Roster Reshuffle
The Cleveland Browns have announced the release of wide receiver Cedric Tillman as part of their efforts to revamp their receiving lineup. This decision follows the team's recent draft choices, which included two early picks dedicated to the wide receiver position.
Tillman, a third-round pick in 2023, struggled with injuries and was unable to secure a consistent role on the team. Over his career with the Browns, he recorded 71 receptions for 833 yards and five touchdowns across 38 games. The addition of KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston in the 2026 NFL Draft has further complicated his standing on the roster.
Head coach Todd Monken emphasized the need for talent and performance in building a new offensive identity for the team. While Tillman's release marks a significant change, it does not necessarily end his NFL career, as other teams may see potential in his experience and size.
