Elliss hurt his knee in Sunday's game against New Orleans and is questionable to return, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports. Elliss was injured in the first half of the must-win game for Atlanta. If the linebacker is unable to return, it would be a big blow to the Falcons, as Elliss ranks second on the team with 119 tackles, including 4.0 sacks, on the campaign. For at least the time being, Andre Smith has entered the game in Elliss' stead.... See More ... See Less

Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Logs double-digit tackles
Ellis recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) in Atlanta's 29-25 loss to Tampa Bay on Sunday. Ellis had a productive outing despite the loss, as he recorded a team-high tackle tally.

Elliss posted 11 tackles (six solo), including a sack, during Sunday's 25-23 loss to Arizona. Elliss recorded a season-high 11 stops, marking his second double-digit tackle performance of the season. He also notched his second sack of the campaign.

Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Continues solid play
Elliss notched eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Titans. Elliss recorded at least eight tackles for the third time this season. Across eight appearances, he's totaled 53 tackles and one sack. He's well on his way to surpassing his career high in tackles (78) during his first season with Atlanta, but he hasn't been as impactful as a pass rusher as he was with New Orleans last year, when he posted seven sacks....

Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Records first sack of 2023
Elliss recorded six solo tackles, including one sack, during Sunday's 25-24 win over the Packers. Elliss led Atlanta in tackles and recorded his first sack of 2023, taking down Jordan Love on a third-and-11 play in the first quarter.

Falcons' Kaden Elliss: Joining Falcons on three-year deal
Elliss agreed to a three-year contract with the Falcons on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Elliss is scheduled to make $21.5 million over the next three years, though the deal can't be finalized until Wednesday. The 27-year-old linebacker enjoyed a breakout season with the NFC South rival Saints in 2022, racking up 78 tackles and seven sacks. Elliss had just 23 tackles and one sack over three previous seasons.... See More ... See Less -
Saints' Kaden Elliss: Key defensive contributor in 2022
Elliss tallied 78 tackles (43 solo), seven sacks, two passes defended and two forced fumbles over 17 games during the 2022 season. Elliss notched career highs across the board during his fourth season with New Orleans. The 2019 seventh-round pick was a core special-teamer over his first three years with the Saints, and he continued to primarily play in this phase until linebacker Pete Werner went down with an ankle injury Week 9. Eliss then recorded 58 tackles (33 solo) and five sacks while taking on a starting role over the final eight games of the season. He also maintained a significant role even when Werner returned for three of the final four regular-season games. As a result, the 27-year-old Elliss finished fourth on the team in tackles and second in sacks, and he will likely draw interest when he becomes an unrestricted free agent this offseason....

Saints' Kaden Elliss: Tallies eight tackles in loss
Elliss recorded eight tackles (three solo) in Monday's 17-16 loss to the Buccaneers. Elliss tied with cornerbacks Alontae Taylor and Bradley Roby for the Saints' second-most tackles behind strong safety Marcus Maye. The fourth-year linebacker has risen into an extremely prominent role since starter Pete Werner went down with an ankle injury Week 9, recording 40 tackles, 2.5 sacks and one pass defended over the last four games. Elliss played a relatively moderate role over the first eight weeks of the season, though his performance over the past month may have earned him increased playing time even if Werner manages to return following New Orleans' Week 14 bye....

Saints' Kaden Elliss: Leading tackler again Week 12
Elliss logged 14 tackles (12 solo) during Sunday's 13-0 loss to the 49ers. Elliss recorded a game high in tackles as the Saints were shut out for the first time this season. The 27-year-old also started his third straight contest in place of Pete Werner, who has been sidelined since suffering an ankle injury Week 9 versus Baltimore. Elliss has set a new season high for tackles in each of these starts, totaling 33 tackles, 2.5 sacks and one pass defended over this span. He should continue to play a prominent role if Werner remains sidelined against the Buccaneers next Monday.... See More ... See Less -
