The Kansas City Chiefs officially elevated DT Marlon Tuipulotu from their practice squad to the active roster ahead of Week 1, per the NFL Transactions wire.
Tuipulotu, 26, was a sixth-round pick by the Eagles out of USC back in the 2021 NFL Draft.
He made it onto the active roster as a rookie and appeared in five games. The following season he appeared in nine games before winding up on injured reserve in November 2022 due to a torn meniscus.
Tuipulotu was among the Eagles’ final roster cuts last offseason, and he signed with the Chiefs practice squad just two days after being released. Kansas City re-signed him to a contract in March.
In 2024, Tuipulotu appeared in two games for the Chiefs and recorded four tackles and one tackle for loss.
