Finishes strong
Bell caught 14 of 23 targets for 167 yards and three touchdowns over 15 regular-season games in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Bell was largely a non-factor during the regular season with the majority of his output coming in the final game when the Browns rested starters for the postseason. He followed that with eight catches in the playoff loss to Houston. The Browns clearly need help at wide receiver behind Amari Cooper in 2024. Elijah Moore, who was expected to provide big-play potential, never emerged as a threat and enters the final year of his rookie contract. That suggests Bell or second-year wideout Cedric Tillman could move up the depth chart and hold bigger roles.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could benefit from Grant's injury
Bell, who is currently on the active/PUP list with a foot injury, could eventually benefit from Jakeem Grant's season-long absence due to a torn Achilles' tendon.
ANALYSIS
The rookie third-round pick will have some ground to make up first, considering he just recently began participating in drills at training camp. Bell finished his final collegiate season at Purdue with 93 receptions, 1,286 yards and six touchdowns across 11 games, and with Grant making a strong case for the No. 3 receiver role before going down with his injury Tuesday, Bell could make a play for a top-three role once he has a full grasp of the offense.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Bell was a steady presence in the Browns' offense but did not have a large role in 2022. As a rookie out of Purdue, Bell was the team's primary slot receiver and finished with a modest 35 targets (24 catches). No doubt, the Deshaun Watson saga had a huge impact on the passing game, but the Browns clearly thought last year's receivers were not enough. Cleveland hit the market hard, bringing in Elijah Moore (like Bell, a slot receiver) and Marquise Goodwin. That was before they jumped on Cedric Tillman in the third round of the draft. Bell's fit, along with that of Michael Woods, Jakeem Grant and Anthony Schwartz, is uncertain.
