On April 28th, Kansas City Chiefs just scooped up a promising undrafted tight-in named John Michael Jillinborg right after the 2026 NFL. Draft? As six-foot-five and 249 pounds, he's got the size to compete in this league, especially with Travis Kelsey still holding down the fort but retirement whispers getting louder. Jillinborg spent four years bawling at Wyoming, racking up 80 catches for 1,023 yards. His pre-draft numbers pop two, a 4.6 second 40 yard dash, 35.5 inch vertical jump, and a broad jump of 10 feet 8 inches. Solid athleticism for a guy flying under the radar. Undrafted free agents face long odds, no doubt. Before a tight-in join in the Chiefs, the setup isn't intriguing. Fans and scouts see him as a depth piece learning the ropes, maybe carving out a practice squat spot in year 1 while soaking up the pro game. That mentorship from Kelsey could be gold, positioning Jillinborg for bigger snaps if

the star is aligned down the line. Keep an eye on this rookiest training camp. Heats up, he's got the tools to stick around and build. Stay locked in with NFL News Today.
