The Kansas City Chiefs have another defensive lineman not returning from last season's team with yet another free agent departure.
On Tuesday, the Indianapolis Colts officially announced the free-agent signing of defensive lineman Jerry Tillery , who spent last season in Kansas City .
During last year's training camp press conference, Kansas City Chiefs defensive line coach Joe Cullen spoke highly of the versatility Tillery brought to the unit.
"Jerry's been a great addition. He's a vet, you know, an eight-year vet. i mean, he can play all along the line of scrimmage. "He's really worked hard and is doing a great job, and we're glad we have him," said Cullen during his training camp press conference last summer. "He's playing hard, playing physical." He's always been able to be nifty at rushing the passer, but we asked him to be a little bit more stouter in the run game, and he's doing that."
During the 2025 season, Tillery appeared in 17 games for the Chiefs and recorded 2.5 sacks, 20 tackles, and 2 quarterback hits.
