  • Patriots' Christian Elliss: Gets first pick as pro

    Elliss recorded four tackles (three solo) and an interception during Sunday's 25-24 loss versus the Colts. For the first interception of his career, Elliss found himself in the right place at the right time late in the first quarter when teammate Jahlani Tavai tipped an Anthony Richardson pass sky high. Despite the highlight play in Week 13, his production as a tackler isn't enough to keep him in the realm of IDP relevance for the fantasy playoffs in most formats.

  • Patriots' Christian Elliss: Making return in Week 11

    Elliss (abdomen) is not among New England's inactives for Sunday's game against the Rams. Elliss will return from a one-game absence due to an injury to his abdomen. The 25-year-old's return will likely result in less defensive snaps for Sione Takitaki. Elliss accumulated 24 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, in his three games prior to last week's absence.

  • Patriots' Christian Elliss: Could return Sunday

    Elliss (abdomen) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams. The Idaho product missed the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Bears due to an abdomen injury but practiced in a limited fashion throughout the week, giving himself a chance to play Sunday. If Elliss is forced to miss his second consecutive game in Week 11, expect Curtis Jacobs to start alongside Jahlani Tavai in New England's linebacker corps.

  • Patriots' Christian Elliss: Won't play in Week 10

    Elliss (abdomen) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. Elliss didn't practice all week after likely worsening his abdomen injury in the Patriots' Week 9 loss to the Titans, so missing Sunday's contest comes as no surprise.
