There are revenge games and then there is absolute foolishness.
Jerry Tillery spent time with the Chargers from 2019-2022. He then joined the Raiders last season and continues to be with Las Vegas in 2023.
One has to wonder if the defensive lineman had a problem with Los Angeles QB Justin Herbert after what Tillery did in the first half Sunday.
Herbert is clearly pulling up and out of bounds when Tillery absolutely clobbers him.

It took a few minutes before the officials made the only possible decision: Tillery was flagged for a personal foul and disqualified from the game.
Tillery was a first-round pick of the Chargers in 2019. The Bolts took Herbert in the first round the following year.
