Cedric Tillman Injury: Expected back after bye

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Tillman (hamstring) is expected to return to action after the team's Week 9 bye, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

Tillman is eligible to have his 21-day practice window opened, and assuming the Browns elect to do so in Week 10, the expectation is that he'll be ready to play in a Nov. 9 matchup with the Jets. For the time being, however, Tillman remains on injured reserve, where he's been since Week 4 due to a lingering hamstring injury. Across four appearances to begin the season,Tillman produced a 11-106-2 receiving line on 20 targets.
