Isaiah Bond: Everything you need to know

Bond caught one of two targets for 13 yards and had one carry for four yards in Sunday's 20-18 win over Cincinnati in Week 18. Bond didn't see much volume in the regular-season finale, as Cleveland ran more than it passed for the sixth time in the last nine contests. Bond was active for eight of those games and totaled just 14 targets. He did, however, show off some big-play ability during that time, averaging 30.7 yards over seven receptions. The top priority among many offseason objectives for the organization will likely be to fix the passing attack. Those goals likely include changes to the front office/coaching regime as well as a new quarterback. However it shakes out, Bond should be considered part of the offensive rebuild in 2026.

Bond secured his lone target for 16 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over Pittsburgh in Week 17. The reception was just Bond's sixth (16 targets) over the last nine games. His production has varied from week to week, and he's been hampered by inconsistency at quarterback, leading to just 17 catches on 42 targets (40.4 percent catch rate). Despite the erratic production, Bond's flashed enough (19.1 YPR) to be considered a future piece of the puzzle in the Cleveland offense.

Bond was not targeted and had one rush attempt for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills in Week 16. He was credited with 21 receiving yards after taking a lateral from fellow wideout Malachi Corley. Bond has shown chemistry with quarterback Shedeur Sanders, particularly on deep throws, but it wasn't there for him Sunday. It's been an inconsistent year for the rookie wideout, who went without a catch for the fifth time in his last eight games. For the season, Bond has caught 16 of 41 targets for 309 yards and zero touchdowns.
