Signed a one-year, $1.79 million contract with the Chiefs in March of 2025.
Reliable on one-year deal
Tillery finished the 2025 season with 20 tackles (eight solo), including 1.5 sacks, and added a fumble recovery over 17 games.
ANALYSIS
Tillery was a reliable depth defensive tackle, playing 17 percent to 52 percent of defensive snaps per game throughout the entire 2025 season. The 29-year-old has been a Charger, Raider, Viking, and Chief throughout his tenure in the NFL, and 2026 could mark a return to one of those franchises or a new destination entirely for the lineman heading into his ninth season.

Tillery tallied 31 combined tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and also recovered a fumble last season for the Raiders. He then signed a one-year contract worth up to $3.75 million with the Vikings. He should bolster the team's depth at nose tackle for the upcoming season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Roster spot not certain
Tillery could be a candidate to get cut before the start of the season, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Chargers already declined Tillery's fifth-year option earlier this offseason, but it would still be a surprise to see the team give up on the 2019 first-round pick so soon. Popper notes the addition of Morgan Fox, an interior pass-rushing specialist, during the later stages of free agency makes Tillery's role redundant unless he's able to improve as a run defender. At the very least, the pressure is on the 25-year-old Tillery to finally realize his vast potential.
