2025 Fantasy Outlook
Elliss turned in a career year in 2024 en route to recording 80 tackles, including 1.5 sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 16 appearances (five starts). This coming season, the 26-year-old could wind up starting at middle linebacker for the Patriots out of the gate. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a two-year contract with the Patriots in March of 2025.
Won't practice Wednesday
Head coach Mike Vrabel told reporters that Elliss (hip) won't practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Idaho product didn't return to the Patriots' Week 9 win over the Falcons after exiting with a hip injury, so it's no surprise that he'll miss Wednesday's practice. Elliss likely needs to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday to have a chance at returning for the Week 10 matchup against the Buccaneers. If he's inactive for the first time this season, Jack Gibbens is likely to have an expanded role in New England's inside linebacker corps.
