Tillman (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Tillman remains in concussion protocol, but the Browns are hopeful he'll be able to play this weekend, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic. Tillman has missed three straight games after being concussed Week 12 against the Steelers. If he's cleared to play Sunday, he steps right back into a prominent role and plus matchup versus Cincinnati. However, the quarterback switch from Jameis Winston to Dorian Thompson-Robinson is a significant downgrade.

Tillman (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Tillman remains in concussion protocol, but the Browns are hopeful he'll be able to play this weekend, per Zac Jackson of The Athletic. Tillman has missed three straight games after being concussed Week 12 against the Steelers. If he's cleared to play Sunday, he steps right back into a prominent role and plus matchup versus Cincinnati. However, the quarterback switch from Jameis Winston to Dorian Thompson-Robinson is a significant downgrade.
Tillman (concussion) remained limited at practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Tillman, who last played in Week 12, now has one more chance to practice fully ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. Either way, Friday's final injury report will reveal whether he heads into the weekend with an injury designation or cleared to return to action. If Tillman remains sidelined versus Cincinnati, however, Jerry Jeudy, Elijah Moore and Michael Woods would be in line to lead the Browns' Week 16 wide receiver corps.
Tillman (concussion) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Tillman has missed Cleveland's past three games, and while Wednesday's limited session was a step in the right direction, he has yet to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, per Cabot. Coach Kevin Stefanski expressed optimism Monday regarding Tillman's chances of suiting up Sunday against the Bengals, but even if Tillman returns, the 2023 third-round draft pick would be tough to trust in fantasy with the Browns shifting to Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center.
Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday he's "hopeful" that Tillman (concussion) will be available for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports. Tillman has missed three consecutive games while progressing though the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, but it appears that he's trending in the right direction for Week 16. Stefanski offered similar optimism regarding the status of tight end David Njoku (hamstring), who missed Week 15's loss to the Chiefs. Getting both Tillman and Njoku on the field would provide a notable boost to Cleveland's receiving corps behind Jerry Jeudy, a development that would be particularly helpful with Nick Chubb (foot) having suffered a season-ending fracture.
Tillman (concussion) will be out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com and Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram report. Per Petrak, coach Kevin Stefanski relayed Friday that Tillman, who practiced in a limited capacity this week, didn't clear the NFL's concussion protocol. With Tillman still sidelined and tight end David Njoku (hamstring) listed as questionable, the Browns' top healthy pass catchers heading into the weekend are WRs Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
Tillman (concussion) was limited at practice Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Tillman also was limited Wednesday, but he'll have one more chance to practice fully before Week 15 injury designations are assigned. He's missed the Browns' last two games, but his ability to practice, albeit in a limited fashion, suggests that he has a chance to gain clearance to suit up Sunday against the Chiefs.
Tillman (concussion) is slated to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Tillman has missed the past two games, but after not practicing at all last week, the wideout's return to field Wednesday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- has him trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. His potential return arrives at an opportune time, with fellow key pass catcher David Njoku dealing with a hamstring issue that could affect his Week 15 status.
Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday that Tillman (concussion) will participate in practice, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports. Tillman has missed Cleveland's last two games and didn't practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for Week 14, so it's encouraging to see him back on the field Wednesday. In order to suit up Sunday versus the Chiefs, though, Tillman will need to gain full clearance from the NFL's concussion protocol, including from an independent neurologist.
Tillman remained in the concussion protocol as of Monday, Patrick Warren of the Browns' official site reports. Tillman, who missed the last two games due to the concussion, will need to advance to full practice participation in addition to gaining clearance from an independent neurologist to have a chance at playing in this Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Michael Woods has been seeing expanded snaps alongside starting receivers Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore thus far in Tillman's absence.
