Philadelphia Eagles

He was placed on the COVID list on December 20, 2021. [7] He was removed from the COVID list on December 29. [8]

The Eagles declined the fifth-year option on Dillard's contract on May 2, 2022, making him a free agent after the season. [9] He was placed on injured reserve on September 6, 2022. [10] He was activated on October 15. [11]
