Let’s just let ESPN Browns reporter Daniel Oyefusi deliver the primary info: “The Browns drafted wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston in April, but no Cleveland wideout was targeted more than [Isaiah Bond] this spring.” That’s especially worth noting for two reasons:

1. Cleveland drafted Concepcion in the first round and Boston in the second. So the team clearly not only likes them but should be incentivized to develop them quickly into key contributors.
2. Although Bond arrived as an undrafted free agent, he’s not your typical UDFA.

Our prospect guru Shane Hallam deemed Bond a Round 4-5 prospect who “certainly could have been a Day 2 pick” with more college production. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler rated him a third-round talent and the No. 10 WR prospect in the class.

Bond went undrafted because he got arrested on sexual-assault allegations just two weeks before the draft. A Texas grand jury determined in August, though, that the case didn’t merit an indictment. Bond subsequently signed with Cleveland

The Browns selected Texas A&M WR KC Concepcion with the 24th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Concepcion’s profile took a meaningful step forward in 2025. After two productive seasons as N.C. State’s primary slot receiver, he transferred to Texas A&M and showed his game could scale outside. Concepcion led the Aggies in all major receiving categories, finishing with 61 catches for 919 yards and 10 total scores. The 21-year-old earned consensus All-America honors as an all-purpose threat, adding 25 punt returns for 456 yards and two scores. His quickness and make-you-miss ability really show up on tape. He averaged a healthy 15.1 yards per catch and 7.2 yards after catch per reception last season. Concepcion needs to clean up the drops, though, after dropping 10.3% and 11.7% of his catchable targets over the past two years, according to Pro Football Focus.

Browns WR Isaiah Bond (foot) is off the final injury report and will be back for Sunday’s game vs. the Ravens. We’ll see how he fits alongside WRs Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman, but Bond should not be in Week 11 fantasy lineups.

Browns WR Cedric Tillman (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. He was a full participant in practice all week, so we’re expecting him to play. But Tillman would be a shaky Week 10 fantasy start in this struggling Cleveland passing game. WR Isaiah Bond (foot) has been ruled out.

Browns WR Cedric Tillman is set to miss weeks, according to HC Kevin Stefanski. Tillman injured his hamstring in the second quarter against the Lions. He was able to return briefly, but that was short-lived. He ultimately went to the locker room for the remainder of the game.

The Browns lost WR Cedric Tillman to injury in the first half of Sunday's loss to the Lions. That helped WR Jerry Jeudy lead the team with nine targets for the game. He managed just 3 catches for 48 yards, trailing rookie WR Isaiah Bond in yardage and tying him for second on the team in receptions. Jeudy's day included a bad drop of an early fourth-quarter throw that would have at least picked up big yardage and potentially turned into a long TD. Detroit compounded the issue by returning the ensuing punt for a TD.

Browns WR Cedric Tillman suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Lions and has been ruled out. We'll update his status when we know more, but expect this to be a multi-week injury. Tillman's absence will free up snaps for rookie WR Isaiah Bond, and potentially mean more targets for WR Jerry Jeudy and TEs David Njoku and Harold Fannin.

The Browns are signing WR Isaiah Bond to a three-year deal, according to insider Mary Kay Cabot. Bond went undrafted this spring after he was accused of sexual assault in April. The charges have since been dropped.

Former Texas WR Isaiah Bond turned himself in to the Frisco Police Department on Thursday for a sexual assault warrant. He was released after posting bail and issued a statement denying the charges against him.

Former Texas Longhorns WR Matthew Golden ran a 4.29 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, beating former teammate Isaiah Bond. At 5'11 and 191 pounds, Golden is nearly a lock to be a first round draft pick and may even be in contention to be the first WR selected.
