Charles Tillman is now an FBI agent.

The Chicago Tribune is reporting that the former NFL cornerback has graduated from the FBI’s training academy and is now working as an agent.

Tillman will be working on a two-year probationary period where agents are often given a variety of experiences to show them the ropes.

Tillman earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from the University of Louisiana-Lafayette before the Bears drafted him in the second round in 2003. He grew up in a military family – his father, Donald Tillman Jr., was a sergeant in the Army – and attended 11 schools from kindergarten through 12th grade.
