Raiders Pick Up Jerry Tillery Off Waivers
2 years agoThe Las Vegas Raiders claimed former first-round defensive tackle Jerry Tillery off waivers from the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday. Besides the Raiders, the Lions, Panthers, Colts, 49ers, Jets, Giants and Chiefs all put in waiver claims for Tillery. The 26-year-old will now head to the Chargers' division rivals after posting 106 tackles (57 solo), 12 tackles for loss, 33 QB hits, 10.5 sacks, three forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in his four seasons with the Bolts. He had his best season last year, but Tillery has struggled in seven games in 2022 and is also dealing with a back injury. In his seven games this year, Tillery has just eight tackles (five solo), one sack and a forced fumble. Tiller will work to get healthy before providing depth on the Raiders' D-line the rest of the season.
