The Ravens won't have to deal with Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman as they try to wrap up the AFC North title on Sunday.

The move will end Tillman's season. He missed the last six games of the year after suffering a concussion in the snow against Pittsburgh on Thursday night in Week 12. There was a brief window where Tillman looked to be on the up this year as he started four games after the Browns traded Amari Cooper and finished with lines of 8/81/0, 7/99/2, 6/75/1, and 3/47/0 on 40 targets. Heading into the third year of his rookie contract, though, the quarterback situation in Cleveland is shaky enough to leave him as a hard-to-trust fantasy asset. The upside is there. We'll have to see how the situation shakes out before we can recommend him in drafts.

The Browns placed Tillman (concussion) on injured reserve Tuesday.

The Browns are placing WR Cedric Tillman on IR for his concussion. Tillman suffered the injury back in Week 12. He actually returned to practice ahead of the Week 15 game against Kansas City but has never returned to game action. The IR placement makes it a six-game concussion absence -- a worrisome timeline for an injury that most commonly costs a player a single game. We'll see this offseason whether the concussion will impact Tillman beyond this season.
