LOS ANGELES — The Chargers on Thursday waived defensive lineman Jerry Tillery, a first-round pick in 2019.
Tillery had missed practice the last two days for what the team termed a “personal” reason.
“This was not an easy decision, but after careful consideration, it was a necessary one that is in the best interest of both team and player,” general manager Tom Telesco said in a statement. “We wish Jerry all the best moving forward in his career.”
