The Browns placed Bell (hip) on injured reserve Tuesday. Bell is slated to undergo season-ending surgery after dislocating his right hip in last Sunday's win over the Jaguars. The 2022 third-round pick's injury could open up more opportunity for Cedric Tillman and James Proche in Cleveland's wide receiver corps.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Monday that Bell's hip surgery is season-ending, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Bell was carted off the field with a right hip injury in the third quarter of Cleveland's Week 2 win, and it now appears the 23-year-old wideout will be forced to miss the remainder of the 2024 season. With Bell undergoing season-ending surgery, expect Cedric Tillman and James Proche to see more work as depth pieces in the Browns' wide receiver room.

Bell signed with the Browns' practice squad Saturday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.come reports. The 2022 third-round pick was waived by the team earlier this week, but it always seemed like this was a roster manipulation move as opposed to Bell falling out favor with the franchise. It's entirely possible Bell will be elevated to the active roster frequently to begin the year, but he at minimum won't be eligible to play until Week 2.

The Browns waived Bell on Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Bell, a 2022 third-round pick, failed to emerge as a regular starter in his first two seasons with Cleveland, but Cabot reports that the team hopes a reunion will be possible if he goes unclaimed on waivers. In Wednesday's practice Bell was limited with a quadriceps issue, but it looks like he's now healthy and wasn't waived with an injury designation.
-
Bell has not participated in practice since injuring his quadriceps in Cleveland's preseason opener against Green Bay, Kelsey Russo of the the Browns' official site reports. With Bell missing nearly two weeks of practice, it's unlikely that the 2022 third-round pick will suit up for the Browns' preseason finale against the Seahawks on Saturday. Bell has had a strong training camp, and despite missing multiple weeks due to injury, he is expected to make the 53-man roster as a depth wide receiver behind starters Amari Cooper, Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.
