Kilborn was born in Desborough and played for Desborough Town until December 1919 when he was signed for Division One side Bradford City. But it was not until 8 October 1921 Kilborn made his debut in a 2–0 defeat against Middlesbrough, playing a total of 14 games that season as the club lost its top flight status. In 1922–23 Kilborn was the club's joint top goal-scorer with just five goals. He was released in 1924 after just 40 games with the club.
