The Steelers placed Elliott (knee) on injured reserve Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The move was expected and knocks Elliott out for at least the next four contests. Pittsburgh has already made a move to replace the injured safety after the team acquired Kyle Dugger from the Patriots in a trade earlier this week.

The Steelers are expected to place Elliott (knee) on IR due to an injury he sustained during Sunday's loss to the Packers, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin called Elliott "week-to-week" Tuesday, and the team also acquired Kyle Dugger in a trade with New England to provide additional depth at safety. Both developments are signals that Elliott's knee injury will require time on the sideline. Once officially placed on IR, Elliott will be ruled out for a requisite minimum of four games.

Head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Elliott is considered "week-to-week" due to a knee injury he sustained during the Steelers' 35-25 loss to the Packers on Sunday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The initial fear out of the Steelers' camp was that Elliott's knee injury was season-ending, though the good news is that the 2018 sixth-rounder's ACL is intact, per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Monday. Elliott will likely be ruled out for the Steelers' Week 9 clash against the Colts and a stint on injured reserve is possible, though Tomlin relayed that any discussion of an IR stint has yet to happen. Chuck Clark, Jabrill Peppers and Juan Thornhill are expected to carry the load at safety for as long as Elliott is on the shelf.

Elliott (knee) is likely to miss the remainder of the campaign, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Elliott hurt his knee in Sunday's loss to the Packers. Fowler notes that the safety's ACL is intact and that Elliott is trying to work through the injury but adds that a return this season "is not considered likely at this point." Chuck Clark figures to step in as a near-every-down player during Elliott's absence.

Elliott (knee) is out for the rest of Sunday night's matchup with the Packers, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The safety had five tackles (one solo) when he left the contest. Elliott suffered a knee injury in Week 1 and missed the next two games, though it's unclear if this issue is related. Chuck Clark and Jabrill Peppers are Pittsburgh's backup safeties.

Elliott recorded nine total tackles (six solo) in Thursday's 33-31 loss to the Bengals.

EDGE Analysis

Elliott led the team in stops in Week 7, compiling at least six tackles for the fourth consecutive game that he's played this season. The safety was limited by a knee injury early in the year, but he has now registered 33 total tackles (19 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed, one of which was an interception, and a forced fumble to this point in the campaign.

Elliott (personal) won't have an injury designation for Thursday's game against the Bengals, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Elliott had been listed as questionable due to a personal issue, but he joined the team in Cincinnati on Thursday and will play. The starting safety has 24 tackles (13 solo) and an interception across three appearances this season.

Elliott (persona) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Elliott did not travel with the team to Cincinnati on Wednesday while attending to a personal matter, but he has not been ruled out for Thursday's AFC North tilt. Chuck Clark and Juan Thornhill would be the top candidates to start at safety if Elliott is not cleared to play.

Elliott notched 12 tackles (four solo) Sunday in a 23-9 win against Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Elliott led the Steelers in stops while doubling his previous season-high mark. The veteran safety seems to be past the knee injury that caused him to miss two games earlier in the campaign. Elliott was held out of practice Tuesday for rest purposes, but there's no reason to think he's at risk of missing Thursday's matchup against Cincinnati.

Elliott registered six tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, a forced fumble and two defensed passes, including an interception, in Sunday's 24-21 win over Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Elliot made a number of big plays in the narrow victory, beginning with an interception of Carson Wentz in the second quarter. Elliott later sacked Wentz for an eight-yard loss in the third period and forced a fumble on the play, though the Vikings were able to recover. That was Elliott's first regular-season sack since 2021.
