The Kansas City Chiefs signed defensive tackle Jerry Tillery back in March after losing Tershawn Wharton in free agency to the Carolina Panthers. At the time, it was viewed as a low-cost veteran replacement for Wharton, and after K.C. drafted Omarr Norman-Lott in the second round as a potential long-term answer, Tillery was largely forgotten.
However, after watching a couple of training camp practices last week, Chiefs fans may be overlooking what Tillery could bring to the defense this season.
Tillery was a first-round draft pick by the San Diego (now Los Angeles) Chargers back in 2019.
