2024 Fantasy Outlook
After a breakout 2022 with the Saints, Elliss signed a three-year deal with the division-rival Falcons last offseason and posted a career-high 122 tackles. Over the last two seasons, he's totaled 200 tackles, including 11.0 sacks, five pass defenses and two forced fumbles. Even with Troy Andersen back after a lost 2023 season, Elliss' role shouldn't change drastically, making him a strong IDP option again. The only concern for Elliss this summer is his participation during training camp, as he left the 2023 regular-season finale due to an undisclosed knee injury, but he's expected to be full go.

Logs first sack of season
LBAtlanta Falcons
November 4, 2024
Elliss finished Sunday's 27-21 win over the Cowboys with 13 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks.
ANALYSIS
Elliss was credit for a minimal sack on Dak Prescott late in the third quarter, which led to a 57-yard field goal by Brandon Aubery three plays later. Elliss has logged at least 10 combined tackles over his last three outings, and his 78 tackles through the first nine games of the regular season leads the Falcons and is 12th-most in the NFL.

James Houston is tied for the league lead among rookies with 7.5 sacks and is a must-add dynasty player wherever he's still available.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
After playing primarily on special teams during his first three NFL seasons, Elliss, a seventh-round pick by the Saints, posted 78 tackles, seven sacks and two forced fumbles - all career highs - in 2022. He parlayed his strong campaign into a three-year, $21.5 million deal from the Saints this offseason and should replace Rashaan Evans as a starting inside linebacker next to Troy Andersen. Given his pass-rushing prowess, Elliss may get moved around to different spots to create advantageous matchups, which could allow Mykal Walker to garner a rotational role after being benched at the end of last season.
