Matt Derrick reports the Chiefs are elevating G C.J. Hanson and DT Marlon Tuipulotu for their Week 7 game against the Commanders.

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 2025, Tuipulotu has appeared in two games for the Chiefs.
