  • Steelers' DeShon Elliott: Has career year with Pittsburgh

    Elliott finished the 2024 season with 108 tackles (72 solo), six pass breakups, including one interception, three fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles across 15 regular-season contests.

    After bouncing around with the Ravens, Lions and Dolphins the previous three seasons, Elliott signed a two-year, $6 million deal with the Steelers last offseason and started 14 of the 15 games in which he appeared. Elliott's tackles and fumble recoveries each marked new career bests for the 27-year-old safety. Coming off a strong year, Elliott should be back as a starter in Pittsburgh next season.

  • Steelers' DeShon Elliott: Officially out vs. Ravens

    Elliott (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Ravens, Burt Lautenof the Pittsburgh Steelers reports.

    Elliott was trending towards being out for Saturday throughout the week, so the actual designation doesn't come as too much of a surprise. The starting safety will now miss back-to-back matchups as the Steelers take on a tough Baltimore squad. His next chance to see the field will be in Week 17 at home against the Chiefs.

  • Steelers' DeShon Elliott: Unlikely to play against Baltimore

    Elliott (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice and is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Ravens, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

    Elliott injured his hamstring during the Steelers' Week 14 win over the Browns, which forced him to be sidelined against the Eagles this past Sunday. Although he was able to practice in a limited capacity Thursday, it appears Elliott is facing an uphill battle to play in Saturday's AFC North showdown. Assuming Elliott is ruled out, Damontae Kazee would be slated to start at strong safety for a second straight game.
