DeShon Elliott News
Free-agent safety DeShon Elliott signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday for two years and $6 million, according to a source. Elliott was initially drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in 2018 out of Texas and spent the first three years of his career in Baltimore. Since then, he's spent single years in Detroit and Miami. In 15 regular-season starts for the Dolphins last year, Elliott had 82 tackles (53 solo), an interception, a career-high seven passes defended and a fumble recovery. The 26-year-old has accumulated 287 tackles (202 solo), 3.5 sacks, 12 tackles for loss, 11 QB hits, three interceptions, 17 passes defended, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 57 career games (50 starts) in five NFL seasons. Elliott will be competing for a starting spot in Pittsburgh's secondary.
Former Detroit Lions defensive back DeShon Elliott signed an undisclosed deal with the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday, according to a source. Elliott has started 35 games at safety for the Baltimore Ravens and Lions in the last four seasons. He'll add quality depth with Brandon Jones (knee) recovering from a torn ACL and Eric Rowe hitting free agency. In his lone season with the Lions in 2022, the 25-year-old amassed a career-high 96 tackles (73 solo), five tackles for loss, one interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 14 games (13 starts). Whether he's relevant in IDP leagues again in 2023 will depend on the health of Jones at the starting strong safety position in Miami.
