Gillotte strained his hamstring during a training camp session in late July, returned a little over two weeks later and then ruptured his plantar fascia during a drill.

Nursing strained hamstring Gillotte suffered a strained hamstring during the Chiefs' training camp practice Friday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Impact Whether the injury will impact Gillotte's availability for Week 1 of the regular season will depend on the severity of the strain. As long as he's sidelined, Felix Anudike-Uzomah and rookie second-rounder R Mason Thomas will be candidates to see an uptick in reps on the edge.

Sees rotational volume as rookie Gillotte ended the 2025 season with 38 tackles (14 solo), including 1.5 sacks, as well as one interception over 17 games.
Impact Gillotte saw defensive snaps in every game of the season, logging 25 percent or more of the team's defensive snaps in all contests except the Week 1 matchup with the Chargers. The third-round rookie will likely see a similar amount of snaps and opportunities in year two, as starting defensive ends George Karlaftis and Mike Danna will both remain with the Chiefs for the foreseeable future.
