Wide receiver Cedric Tillman signed with New Orleans on Tuesday. The move comes following his release by the Cleveland Browns on Aug. 27. Tillman, a 26-year-old Tennessee product, was originally selected by Cleveland in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. During his three-season tenure with the Browns, he recorded 71 total receptions for 833 yards and five touchdowns. His final season in Cleveland saw him appear in 13 games, where he finished with 21 catches for 270 yards and two scores.
