Bayer Leverkusen

On 8 March 2019, it was announced that Grill would sign for Bayer Leverkusen starting from the 2020–21 Bundesliga season on a four-year deal. Grill made his debut for the team on 28 February 2021, by playing the full 90-minutes in a 1–2 home loss to SC Freiburg, when Lukáš Hrádecký continues to recover from the achilles tendon problems.

Union Berlin

On 16 June 2022, Grill moved to Union Berlin on a loan agreement, with Union reserving an option to buy. On 30 March 2023, the loan agreement was made permanent.

Eintracht Braunschweig (loan)

On 4 July 2024, Grill joined 2. Bundesliga side Eintracht Braunschweig on a season-long loan deal.

International career

Grill was included in Germany's squad for the 2016 UEFA European Under-17 Championship in Azerbaijan. The team managed to reach the semi-finals, before losing 1–2 against Spain. Grill made his only appearance of the tournament in the match against Spain, coming on as a substitute in the 80th minute following a red card for starting goalkeeper Jan-Christoph Bartels.
