Tillman caught one of two targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 20-18 win over the Bengals in Week 18.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman was responsible for the Browns' longest play for the second consecutive week, and five of his last eight receptions have gone for more than 20 yards. Unfortunately for the third-year wideout, Cleveland's quarterback situation all season was a mess that limited his growth following a promising campaign in 2024, and Tillman had just five catches over the final seven games this season. He ended the regular season with 21 catches for 270 yards and two touchdowns. The 2023 third-round pick is heading into the final year of his rookie contract and should be among the team's top three wideouts in 2026, but his fantasy value will depend on organizational changes during the offseason.

Tillman caught his lone target for 42 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Steelers in Week 17.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman made an impact on Cleveland's lone touchdown drive. He dug the Browns out from deep in their own territory with his only reception of the day and set up Harold Fannin (groin) for a 28-yard score. Fannin has been Shedeur Sanders' leading target the last few weeks, so the groin injury that forced him to leave Sunday's contest could have big implications for the Cleveland passing game in the regular-season finale next Sunday against the Bengals. If Fannin's held out, then wide receivers like Tillman and Jerry Jeudy could see more targets.

Tillman caught his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills in Week 16.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman, who played just seven snaps last week after returning from a concussion, was given 31 snaps Sunday. Unfortunately for the receiver, he was not - and has not been -- a preferred option for quarterback Shedeur Sanders. Over the last five contests, Tillman has three catches on eight targets for 36 yards.

Tillman was not targeted over seven snaps in Sunday's 31-3 loss to Chicago in Week 15.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman battled a concussion and a rib injury during the practice week but was eventually cleared and allowed to suit up. The snap volume indicates he may not have been 100 percent, however. Tillman normally is the No. 2 wideout behind Jerry Jeudy, but he saw less action Sunday than depth WRs Malachi Corley (15 snaps) and Gage Larvadain (31),

Tillman (concussion/ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman didn't practice at all Wednesday or Thursday, but he managed a limited session Friday. That will be enough for him to suit up, which also signifies that he cleared the league's concussion protocol. Tillman has yet to show much rapport with Shedeur Sanders, as he has only two catches for 28 yards across the three games that Sanders has started.

Tillman (concussion/ribs) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman is managing a rib injury and also will need to gain full clearance from the NFL's concussion protocol, including from an independent neurologist, in order to be eligible to play Sunday. Isaiah Bond will stand to benefit from increased opportunities in the receiving game if Tillman ultimately remains sidelined Week 15.

Tillman (concussion/ribs) is not in line to practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman is missing a second consecutive practice while nursing a pair of injury sustained during Cleveland's loss to the Titans in Week 14. He'll have one more chance to resume practicing ahead of Sunday's game against Chicago, but at this stage Tillman appears to be trending in the wrong direction. He'll need to gain full clearance from the concussion protocol before returning to the Browns' starting lineup.

Tillman (concussion/rib) is not in line to practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman was on the field for 64 percent of the Browns' snaps on offense in Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Titans, a game in which the wideout caught one of three targets for 23 yards. He's now contending with a pair of injury concerns ahead of this weekend's contest against the Bears, with two more chances to practice on tap before Cleveland's Week 15 game statuses are posted Friday.

Tillman caught one of three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Titans in Week 14.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman entered Week 14 with just one catch for five yards in the previous two games. With the Browns' passing offense showing some life Sunday under quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who completed 23 of 42 passes for 364 yards, there's hope that secondary receivers like Tillman could be useful over the final four games.

Tillman failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 26-8 loss to San Francisco in Week 13.
EDGE Analysis
Tillman's lone target came early in the second quarter on a day when the wind impacted both team's quarterbacks. He had the second-most snaps among Cleveland's wide receivers, but the Browns' offense isn't structured for leading wideout Jerry Jeudy to hold much fantasy value, much less Tillman as its No. 2. Tillman has one catch on four targets the last two games with Shedeur Sanders under center, and his only two touchdowns this season came during the first two weeks of the season when Joe Flacco was chucking the ball.
