DeShon Elliott - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Injury-shortened campaign in 2025 Elliott (knee) recorded 38 total tackles (20 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed, one of which was an interception, and a forced fumble over five game...

Impact Elliott suffered a sprained MCL in Pittsburgh's Week 1 win over the Jets before he later suffered a season-ending knee injury against the Packers in Week 8. The safety was rather productive when active, but the five appearances set a new career-low for the 28-year-old. Elliott signed a two-year, $12.5 million contract extension with the Steelers prior to the year, so he'll look to get back to full strength and compete for a starting role with the team in 2026.

Expected to land on IR The Steelers are expected to place Elliott (knee) on IR due to an injury he sustained during Sunday's loss to the Packers, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Impact Steelers coach Mike Tomlin called Elliott "week-to-week" Tuesday, and the team also acquired Kyle Dugger in a trade with New England to provide additional depth at safety. Both developments are signals that Elliott's knee injury will require time on the sideline. Once officially placed on IR, Elliott will be ruled out for a requisite minimum of four games.

Impact The initial fear out of the Steelers' camp was that Elliott's knee injury was season-ending, though the good news is that the 2018 sixth-rounder's ACL is intact, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Monday. Elliott will likely be ruled out for the Steelers' Week 9 clash against the Colts and a stint on injured reserve is possible, though Tomlin relayed that any discussion of an IR stint has yet to happen. Chuck Clark, Jabrill Peppers and Juan Thornhill are expected to carry the load at safety for as long as Elliott is on the shelf.
