Records 2.5 sacks in second season Elliss recorded 28 tackles (16 solo), including 2.5 sacks, one pass defensed and one forced fumble in 13 games with Denver in 2025.

Impact Elliss recorded career lows in tackles, sacks and passes defensed in 2025, as the second-year linebacker played behind Jonathon Cooper and Nik Bonitto at outside linebacker, one of the best pass-rushing duos in the league. Nonetheless, Elliss was able to be effective in his limited depth role despite missing games due to shoulder, rib and hamstring injuries. Still on his rookie contract, the Utah product will look to continue his development within the Broncos' imposing pass-rushing unit.

Back to full speed Elliss (hamstring) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Elliss is expected to return to the lineup after missing the last two games. The second-year linebacker has yet to play more than 50 percent of the defensive snaps in a game this season. He has produced 14 tackles (11 solo), 1.0 sacks and a pass breakup through eight games.

Won't face Commanders Elliss (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Impact Elliss has battled separate injuries of late, and he'll now miss his second straight game with the hamstring issue. Que Robinson should see an increased role in Elliss' absence.

NOVEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for SNF Elliss (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Commanders.

Impact Elliss was unable to practice in any capacity before being inactive for the Broncos' Week 11 victory over the Chiefs, so the outside linebacker stringing together limited sessions is a significant improvement. It remains to be seen if a limited week is enough to give the 22-year-old the green light, but if he is unable to go, Que Robinson may be in line for a larger rotational workload.

Logs limited session Elliss (hamstring) logged a limited practice Wednesday.

Impact Elliss has missed the better part of Denver's last two games with the hamstring injury. He did not practice at all ahead of being inactive for Denver's Week 11 win over the Chiefs, so his limited session Wednesday is a positive step forward.

NOVEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play vs. Kansas City Elliss (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Impact Elliss sustained a hamstring injury during the Broncos' Week 10 win over the Raiders. He was unable to practice this past week, and the second-year linebacker will be sidelined for Sunday's AFC West tilt. Dondrea Tillman and rookie fourth-rounder Que Robinson will serve as the Broncos' rotational outside linebackers behind Jonathan Cooper and Nik Bonitto in Elliss's absence.

NOVEMBER 7, 2025 • Associated Press

Ruled out for rest of Thursday Elliss (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday night's contest versus Las Vegas, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Impact Elliss sustained a hamstring injury in the third quarter, and his night has officially now come to an end. The Broncos' next contest will come Nov. 16 against the Chiefs, so the linebacker will have some extra time to rest up prior to that matchup.

NOVEMBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable to return Thursday Elliss (shoulder) is questionable to return to Thursday night's contest against the Raiders, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Elliss suffered a hamstring injury early in the second half, leaving his status for the rest of the game uncertain. In his absence, Dondrea Tillman is a candidate to see additional snaps as a reserve option at outside linebacker behind Jonathan Cooper and Nik Bonitto.
