The Browns have signed WR Cedric Tillman out of Tennessee. He was selected by the Browns with the 74th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.

The 6-foot, 3-inch and 213-pound Tillman ran a 4.54 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine and recorded a 37" vertical jump.

Tillman is coming off an ankle injury that he sustained playing against the Akron Zips last season but didn't require surgery.

Known for his ball skills and ability to make contested catches, Tillman adds another big-bodied pass catcher to the wide receivers' room, aiming to provide another reliable target for quarterback Deshaun Watson.

The Browns received the 74th pick from the New York Jets in the trade that acquired wide receiver Elijah Moore and the pick in exchange for the Browns' 2023 second-round pick.
