Still questionable Tillman (leg) could miss the weekend's visit to D.C. United, with his availability in doubt according to manager Marc Dos Santos, Josh Gross of SoCal Sports reports.

Impact Tillman is working in his recovery since suffering an injury in the 20th minute against Portland Timbers. While it now looks difficult for him to start right away, he's not yet ruled out, suggesting he's not dealing with an extreme issue. With David Martinez (leg) still out and Jacob Shaffelburg (undisclosed) also questionable, there could be a chance for an unusual option such as Tyler Boyd or Ryan Raposo to feature on the right wing.

Suffers setback in Portland clash Tillman left the field due to injury in the 20th minute of Saturday's game versus Portland Timbers.

Impact Tillman was getting heavily involved in attack over the opening minutes of Saturday's match, but he felt he couldn't continue due to a physical problem. This is a considerable absence for an LAFC side that is trying to find a replacement for David Martinez (leg) in the remaining offensive spot alongside Son Heung-Min and Denis Bouanga. If the injury is serious, Jacob Shaffelburg will gain playing in upcoming games.

AUGUST 22 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to starting XI Tillman (leg) is in the starting lineup Saturday against Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Tillman has overcome his leg injury ahead of schedule, taking over a midfield spot from Eddie Segura, with Mathieu Choiniere and Marco Delgado also retaining their places in the lineup. The fit-again player had scored his first goal of the season during his last MLS appearance in May, so he'll aim to build on that outcome if given chances to push forward. Otherwise, he may be a consistent source of passing numbers and fouls drawn.

Impact Tillman will have a chance to avoid a significant absence after missing the recent derby against Galaxy due to the injury. The midfielder would be a likely starter if fully healthy, but the midweek match may come too soon for him to see his regular workload. Meanwhile, both Marco Delgado and Mathieu Choiniere may continue to feature in central midfield.

Impact Tillman will not be an option for LAFC as they resume play, as the midfielder will instead miss out due to a leg injury. This will leave the team without a critical player, as he has been a regular starter, earning one goal and two assists in 14 appearances (10 starts). That said, with him out, expect Stepthan Eustaquio to move into the starting lineup in his place.

He now sits on one goal and two assists across 14 MLS appearances, including 10 starts, this season. The late winner sends LAFC into the seven-week World Cup break sitting fifth in the Western Conference with 24 points, just one point off FC Dallas in fourth.

He logged the full 90 minutes as one of seven changes coach Marc Dos Santos rolled out ahead of Wednesday's Concacaf Champions Cup semifinal first leg against Toluca, ending the night with two chances created and two tackles won.

Impact Tillman's biggest impact came in the 73rd minute when he clipped a perfectly weighted long ball into Miami's half that sparked Denis Bouanga's breakaway for the second goal, after the Gabonese forward rounded Dayne St. Clair and buried it into an empty net. Beyond the assist, Tillman dictated the tempo in midfield and kept LAFC in control while Miami pushed for any kind of sustained momentum. The play capped off a strong shift that showcased his value as a midfield connector who can flip the switch and go vertical when space opens up, as reflected in the two chances he created on the night.

FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

31 starts in 2025 Tillman made 31 starts in 33 MLS appearances (including the playoffs) during the 2025 season

Impact Tillman wrapped up his third season with LAFC, continuing to serve as a regular starter for the club. He tallied two assists across 33 appearances, creating 27 chances while adding 47 tackles and 30 interceptions. Although he went without a goal for the first time since joining LAFC in 2023 and experienced a slight dip from his 2024 form, the club's confidence in him hasn't wavered. LAFC reinforced their belief in the midfielder by signing him to a three-year contract extension in September, securing his future in Los Angeles.

JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Back for Atlanta clash Tillman has served his one match suspension and will be an option for the clash with Atlanta on Sunday.

Impact Tillman will likely slot back at midfield for LAFC having served a suspension against St Louis. He's recorded two assists in 26 MLS appearances in 2025 as he has just four more games left to find his first goal of the year.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Set for suspension Tillman will serve one-match ban due to an accumulation of five yellow cards, according to the league.

Impact Tillman picked up his fifth yellow card in the MLS and will be suspended for Saturday's game against St. Louis City. His absence will force a change in the starting lineup, with David Martinez expected to replace him in the XI.

He has featured in multiple finals with the club, including starting in the FIFA Club World Cup and the 2024 U.S. Open Cup Final win over Sporting KC.

Registers opening assist Tillman assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Wednesday's 4-1 victory against Real Salt Lake.

Impact Tillman earned his first goal contribution in over a month Wednesday, with his last coming July 10. He would find Heung-Min Son in the third minute, earning the opening assist of the game. He now has two assists this season despite being a regular sight on the field, starting in 23 of his 25 appearances this campaign.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Records assist Tillman assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 3-0 victory against Colorado Rapids.

Impact The assist marks Tillman's first goal contribution of 2025. The defensive midfielder finished his 2023 and 2024 MLS seasons with multiple assists, so there is at least a chance that he logs another one before 2025 comes to a close. However, Tillman's career high in the category is three, so the fact that he assisted Wednesday does not suggest that will be what is continually delivered moving forward.

JULY 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starts Sunday Tillman (leg) has been included in the starting lineup for Sunday's match against Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Tillman missed only one game due to the issue before regaining a spot in his team's three-man midfield alongside Marco Delgado and Igor Jesus. Despite having yet to score or assist this season, Tillman is usually given plenty of time on the pitch, producing mostly via passes and tackles.
