Overview
- Coach Kevin Stefanski said Cedric Tillman (hamstring) and DeAndre Carter (knee) will be sidelined for multiple weeks.
- The injuries leave Jerry Jeudy and rookie Isaiah Bond as the only healthy receivers on the active roster, with Jamari Thrash next in line for snaps.
- Carter’s absence forces new return plans, with recent duties shared by Bond on punts and Jerome Ford and Kaden Davis on kickoffs.
- Cleveland fell to 1-3 after the 34-10 defeat in Detroit, where Tillman had one catch for 6 yards; he has 11 receptions for 106 yards and two touchdowns this season.
- Reporters project rookie Dillon Gabriel could replace Joe Flacco at quarterback this week, though the team has not announced a change.
