Elliot logged four total tackles (one solo) and defended two passes, including one interception, during Sunday's 18-10 win over the Falcons. The Texas product was one of two Steelers to record two passes defended and one interception Sunday, as he and Dane Jackson helped Pittsburgh's defense hold Atlanta to just 10 points. Elliott, a first-year Steeler, appeared in 15 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2023, recording 82 total tackles and seven passes defended, including one interception. He's off to a great start in Pittsburgh and is expected to continue making plays in the Steelers' secondary in Week 2's matchup with the Broncos on Sunday.

Elliott (lower body) recorded one tackle during Friday's 20-12 preseason loss to the Texans. Elliott was carted off the field during Wednesday's practice session due to a lower-body injury, but he started during Friday's preseason opener. As long as he can remain healthy ahead of the regular season, he appears to be the favorite to start at strong safety this year after signing a two-year contract with the Steelers in March.

Elliott was carted off the field during practice Wednesday due to a lower-body injury, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. Elliott signed a two-year contract with the Steelers in March and is considered the front-runner for the team's starting strong-safety job. Any lengthy absence could impact his ability to earn the job, although how much time Elliott could miss and the specifics of his injury have yet to be disclosed.

Elliott (calf) racked up 82 tackles (53 solo), seven pass breakups, one interception, and one fumble recovery across 15 regular-season appearances. Elliott put together an impressive season on his one-year deal with Miami, prior to a calf injury forcing him out of the team's playoff loss to Kansas City early. The severity of Elliott's calf issue remains undisclosed, but there's not yet any reason for significant worry about his health being a concern on the free agent market. Heading into his age-27 season, if Elliott doesn't opt for a reunion with the Dolphins, he should have little difficulty securing a starting role at safety elsewhere.

Elliott (calf) will not practice Wednesday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports. Elliott dealt with the injury leading up to Miami's Week 18 loss to the Bills, but he ultimately played through it. It appears the Texas product's calf is still an issue though; however, according to Oyefusi, head coach Mike McDaniel is hopeful Elliott will be ready to play Saturday against the Chiefs.
