DeShon Elliott News
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.
The Detroit Lions signed former Baltimore Ravens sixth-rounder DeShon Elliott to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, according to a source. Elliott was recently on a visit with Detroit and has shown plenty of promise when healthy, most notably in 2020 when he started 16 games. The 24-year-old safety had 80 tackles (51 solo), three tackles for loss, five QB hits, 2.5 sacks, four passes defensed and two forced fumbles in 2020, but he's played in 12 games in his other two NFL seasons due to injuries. Elliott should have a big role in Detroit's secondary if he can just stay on the field.
