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.
