Undrafted in 2026, Tilmon posted a 6.70 RAS coming out of college. The 64, 242-pound outside linebacker reportedly ran a 4.72-second 40-yard dash pre-draft. Tilmon spent the final three years of his college career at Texas Tech, where he played under now-Steelers outside linebackers coach C.J. Ah You. Tilmon was also a tryout player at Steelers rookie minicamp in the spring. Tilmon was a rotational player with the Red Raiders. He recorded eight total tackles in 2025 and one sack, finishing his college career with 5.5 in total. He played notable special teams snaps on kickoff return, kickoff coverage, punt return and punt coverage teams for much of his time with Texas Tech. The Steelers have not immediately signed Tilmon following his tryout. Reports indicate he was the only player Pittsburgh worked out Monday. The Steelers will resume their second week of training camp Tuesday.
