Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman left Thursday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers late in the third quarter with an apparent head injury.

Tillman hauled in a 4-yard reception on the final play of the third, but he took a big hit to the side of the head near the end of the game. With Cleveland facing a third-and-5, Tillman pulled away from the hit to try to get a first down, but he still came up short.

When Tillman tried to get up after being tackled, his leg wobbled and he lost his balance, and team trainers quickly took him into the blue medical tent.

Tillman had two catches for 28 yards before his departure. He also lost a fumble.

Before Thursday, the 24-year-old Tillman had 27 catches for 311 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games (five starts) this season.
