Browns WR Cedric Tillman still sidelined at practice
Per Browns beat reporter Akron Jackson, WR Cedric Tillman remains out of practice as Cleveland works through the back half of training camp.
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman remains out of practice, per Browns beat reporter Akron Jackson, who noted Tillman was among the players not on the field Wednesday. Tillman's absence extends a stretch that has kept the third-year receiver from team work as the Browns push through the back half of training camp.
Akron Jackson (@AkronJackson): Alex Wright is back today. Cedric Tillman is still out. Carsen Ryan didn’t finish practice yesterday but he’s back out there today.
Tillman emerged as a real factor in Cleveland's passing game late last season and was expected to compete for a larger role in 2026 alongside Jerry Jeudy and the rest of the receiver room. The Browns have not detailed the nature of his issue, and Jackson's report pairs the update with news that defensive end Alex Wright is back, suggesting Tillman's situation is being managed rather than flagged as severe.
Cleveland's wideout depth has been tested by camp attrition, so keeping Tillman healthy is a priority even if the current limitation is minor. The staff will likely offer a fuller status update if the absence continues into the team's joint work later in the week.
