The Raiders were finally able to officially release him once the new league year started but he wasn’t in free agency long. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Minshew has signed a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Chiefs lost defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton and defensive end and defensive end Josh Uche in free agency so Tillery will help replace those players. He has experience playing on the interior and exterior of the defensive line. His versatility should help the Chiefs.

The annual shuffle of Patrick Mahomes' backup quarterbacks continued Thursday, with the Kansas City Chiefs signing former Las Vegas Raiders veteran Gardner Minshew to a one-year deal, according to ESPN.
