He turned professional in 2005. Killeen played on mini-tours, including the Tight Lies Tour (winning once) and the NGA Hooters Tour before joining the Nationwide Tour in 2008.

He won again the following week at the Cox Classic in Nebraska. Killeen ended the 2011 season as the top money earner on the Nationwide Tour, which grants him a full-season exemption on the PGA Tour for 2012, a spot in The Players Championship, and exemption from the reshuffle.
