  • Steelers' Elandon Roberts: Signing with Steelers

    Pittsburgh is signing Roberts to a two-year contract Thursday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports. Roberts racked up career numbers with the Dolphins last season, surpassing the century mark in terms of tackles while notching 4.5 sacks in 17 regular-season games. Heading into his age-29 season, Roberts seems like an ideal fit to shore up a key role in Pittsburgh's linebacker corps.

  • Dolphins' Elandon Roberts: Career numbers in contract year

    Roberts racked up 102 tackles (68 solo) and 4.5 sacks across 17 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2022. Roberts eclipsed 100 tackles for the first time in his career while also notching a new high in terms of sacks while on a one-year deal with Miami in 2022, so it's conceivable that new defensive coordinator Vic Fangio could want him back for 2023. The 28-year-old has spent the last three seasons with the Dolphins and would bring some veteran consistency to a relatively young linebacker corps if he's re-signed.

  • Dolphins' Elandon Roberts: Records sack Sunday

    Roberts registered seven tackles (four solo) and one sack in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Packers. Roberts once again played a prominent role in Miami's defensive game plan this past weekend, as he recorded his first sack since Week 12 to go along with seven stops. The veteran now has a team-leading and career-high 94 tackles throughout the 2022-23 campaign, while he's also already corralled the most sacks (3.5) in any one season of his seven-year NFL tenure.

  • Dolphins' Elandon Roberts: Paces team in tackles Sunday

    Roberts recorded seven tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 39-17 win over the Browns. Roberts finished as the Dolphins' leading tackle despite playing just a season-low 40 percent of the team's defensive snaps. The 28-year-old inside linebacker has now logged 372 of his 433 total snaps on defense this season, so it's likely his limited playing time Sunday was largely due to the blowout nature of this win. Roberts should continue to serve as one of Miami's top tacklers against the Texans following the team's Week 11 bye.

  • Dolphins' Elandon Roberts: Observing minicamp

  • Dolphins' Elandon Roberts: All clear Sunday

    Roberts (chest) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Roberts missed last week's game against the Chiefs with the chest issue, but after practicing in a limited capacity this week, he gained the medical clearance needed to play.

  • Dolphins' Elandon Roberts: Inactive for Week 14

    Roberts won't play in Sunday's game against the Chiefs due to a chest injury. Roberts suffered the chest injury in the first quarter of last week's win over the Bengals, and the injury will force him to miss more time. The Miami linebacking corps is a bit thin Sunday, as Kyle Van Noy (hip) joined Roberts on the inactives list. In Roberts' stead, look for an increased role given to Calvin Munson and Kamu Grugier-Hill at inside linebacker for Sunday's game.

  • Patriots' Elandon Roberts: Scores in loss

    Roberts had a 38-yard touchdown reception and a tackle during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Dolphins. Roberts tied up the score late in the third quarter, slipping out from his fullback spot and into the flat for a 38-yard catch-and-run. It was both his first career reception and touchdown. His value as a FB/LB is low heading into the Wild Card round against Tennessee, but don't be surprised if a Patriots team struggling to find rhythm on offense resorts to some further trickery.
