  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Logs four tackles vs. Arizona

    Elliss recorded four tackles (one solo) during Atlanta's win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Elliss continues to have a strong season, having compiled at least four tackles in all 15 of his appearances. The 2019 seventh-round pick will look to build on this performance and keep producing during the team's Week 17 matchup against the Rams.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Solid outing in win

    Elliss tallied six total tackles (all solo) during Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

    The 30-year-old linebacker has now posted six or more stops in eight of the Falcons' last nine games. Elliss has appeared in all 14 of Atlanta's contests this season, recording a team-leading 94 total tackles, including 3.5 sacks, four passes defensed, with one interception, and one forced fumble. He's likely to remain one of the Falcons' top tacklers in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Tallies six stops

    Elliss posted six tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks.

    Elliss is in his third season with the Falcons and is on track for 100 tackles once again, as he sits with 88 tackles (49 solo) through 13 games. The 2019 seventh-round pick has added four pass breakups, 3.5 sacks and an interception. He should be a sturdy fantasy option moving forward.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Solid outing in loss

    Elliss recorded eight tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 27-24 loss against the Jets.

    Elliss was on the field for all 63 of the Falcons' defensive snaps in Week 13, and he posted at least six tackles for the sixth time in his last seven games. His per-snap tackle production is down compared to his first two years with Atlanta, but he's still in the IDP conversation heading into a Week 14 tilt versus the Seahawks.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Notches nine stops in Week 12

    Elliss finished Sunday's 24-10 win over the Saints with nine tackles (seven solo).

    Elliss's tackle total was second most on Atlanta behind Dee Alford (10). The veteran tackler remains a reliable weekly contributor, as he's played every defensive snap in all but of Atlanta's 11 games so far this season. Elliss is up to 74 tackles, including 3.5 sacks, along with four defensed passes (including an interception) on the campaign.

    Elliss registered five solo tackles, including 1.0 sacks, during the Falcons' 30-27 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

    Elliss finished Sunday's game tied for the fourth-most tackles on the Falcons, including a one-yard sack on Bryce Young midway through the third quarter. Elliss has logged a sack in back-to-back games and is up to 3.5 sacks through 10 regular-season games.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Notches sack in loss

    Elliss recorded six total tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, and a pass defensed in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts.

    Elliss was on the field for every one of the the team's defensive snaps for the sixth game in a row, and he made his mark in the second quarter, sacking Daniel Jones for a 10-yard loss. The linebacker has now registered 60 total tackles (31 solo), including 2.5 sacks, while also adding four passes defensed, one of which is an interception, and a forced fumble over nine games this year.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Quiet in loss

    Elliss logged five tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Patriots.

    Elliss continues to occupy a key role in the Atlanta defense, as he logged 100 percent of defensive snaps for the seventh time in eight games this season. He turned in a quiet performance in the loss, and he's had a disappointing campaign relative to expectations by logging five or fewer tackles in five of eight matchups.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Season-high 12 stops in Week 8

    Elliss logged 12 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defense during the Falcons' 34-10 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Elliss cracked double-digit tackles for the first time this season after doing so 10 times in 2024. The 2019 seventh-rounder played every single defensive snap for the sixth time in 2025, and he leads the Falcons with 48 combined tackles through seven regular-season games. Elliss is on pace to record a third-straight 100-tackle season, though he's behind on matching his total from 2024 (151 tackles over 17 regular-season games).

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Records interception in loss

    Elliss recorded nine tackles (four solo) and an interception during Sunday's 20-10 loss at San Francisco.

    49ers quarterback Mac Jones only threw 26 passes in Week 7, and Elliss nabbing a pick in the red zone in the middle of the second quarter is probably a big reason why. Elliss will look to keep up the momentum in coverage against a pass-happy Dolphins team in Week 8.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Five tackles in win

    Elliss recorded five total tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks, in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders.

    Elliss (groin) returned to a full practice Thursday.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Limited on Wednesday

    Elliss (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.

    Elliss played 100 percent of the defensive snaps last Sunday night against Minnesota, so it's unclear when he was injured. If Elliss is unavailable for Week 3 against the Panthers, DeAngelo Malone, JD Bertrand and Josh Woods would be next in line for snaps alongside Divine Deablo at linebacker.

  • Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Four tackles against Minnesota

    Elliss recorded four tackles (two solo) in the Falcons' win over the Vikings on Sunday night.

    Elliss played all 47 defensive snaps, as Minnesota couldn't sustain many drives in the lopsided loss to Atlanta. Through two games, Elliss has logged nine tackles (five solo), one pass breakup and one QB hit on 100 percent of the Falcons' defensive snaps.
