Top Jerry Tillery News

  • Colts' Jerry Tillery: Coming to Indianapolis

    Tillery and the Colts agreed to terms on a contract Tuesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    The veteran defensive tackle is headed to Indianapolis following a one-year stint with Kansas City. Across 17 contests in 2025, Tillery logged 374 defensive snaps and tallied 20 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks. He's expected to compete for a reserve role on the defensive line.

  • Chiefs' Jerry Tillery: 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.

    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.

  • Chiefs' Jerry Tillery: Good to go for season finale

    Tillery (personal) is active for Sunday's contest against the Raiders, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Tillery dealt with a personal matter Friday and missed the team's final practice of the week, but he'll now be good to go for Week 18. The 29-year-old will operate in his typical role as a top reserve option behind Chris Jones and Derrick Nnadi at defensive tackle versus Las Vegas.

  • Chiefs' Jerry Tillery: Questionable with personal issue

    Tillery (personal) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Raiders.

    Tillery was a fresh addition to Friday's injury report and did not participate in practice due to a personal issue he was attending to. It is unclear whether or not this issue will be resolved in time for Sunday's contest. If the 29-year-old's circumstances prevent him from suiting up, Mike Pennel and Zacch Pickens will likely see an increased number of rotational snaps at defensive tackle behind starters Chris Jones and Derrick Nnadi.

  • Chiefs' Jerry Tillery: Joins KC

    Tillery signed with the Chiefs on Wednesday, Matt McMullen of the team's official site reports.

    The defensive tackle appeared in all 17 regular-season games last year and in Minnesota's wild-card playoff loss to the Rams, making 11 starts in the regular season. Tillery finished the 2024 regular season with 28 tackles (15 solo), two pass breakups and a forced fumble. The 2019 first-round pick of the Chargers has started 50 of the 96 regular-season games he's played in during his career, with his career-best season coming in 2021 when he recorded 51 tackles (24 solo), including 4.5 sacks.

  • Vikings' Jerry Tillery: Suits up for all 17 games in 2024

    Tillery notched 28 tackles (13 solo), two pass breakups and one forced fumble across 17 regular-season appearances with the Vikings in 2024.

    Tillery began the 2024 campaign hovering around the range of 50 percent of defensive snaps, but from Week 11 on, his rotational role involved closer to 30 percent of defensive snaps per game. The 28-year-old is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so he may need to search for a chance to contribute with another club.
