DeShon Elliott — Active
Elliott will suit up for his first game action since Oct. 26, 2025, when he sustained a knee injury that kept him out for the remainder of that season as well as the first six games of the 2026 campaign. The 29-year-old was a full participant in practice this week, and after being activated from injured reserve Saturday, he'll likely be ready to handle a full load of snaps against New Orleans. Expect Elliott to unseat rookie Robert Spears-Jennings as one of Pittsburgh's starting safeties.

DeShon Elliott — Questionable
Elliott started the regular season on injured reserve with a knee injury. The strong safety's 21-day return window opened Oct. 8, and while he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game, the 29-year-old defensive back is on track to make his 2026 debut. Elliott is set to reclaim his starting role in the Steelers' secondary from Robert Spears-Jennings in Sunday's contest in Paris.

DeShon Elliott — Injured Reserve
It's the first time Elliott has logged a full practice since his 21-day window to return from injured reserve opened Oct. 8. The Steelers released Rayshawn Jenkins earlier Wednesday, and that's a potential sign that Elliott will be available to make his 2026 debut this Sunday against the Saints in Paris.
DeShon Elliott — Injured Reserve
Elliott's 21-day return window was opened Oct. 8. The safety did not play in the Steelers' Week 5 game against the Colts and has now been ruled out ahead of Week 6. Elliott was a limited participant in all three practices during Week 6 prep but is still not quite ready to return to the field.
DeShon Elliott — Injured Reserve
Elliott returned to practice Thursday after the Steelers opened up his 21-day return window. The safety logged two limited sessions in Week 5 as he works through a persistent knee injury. It remains unclear if Elliott will be ready to suit up for Week 6 or if he will need even more time to recover.
DeShon Elliott — Injured Reserve
Elliott's 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Thursday. While Elliott was only back on the practice field in a limited capacity, it was still a step in the right direction. However, despite his presence at practice Thursday, the team might need to wait a few more weeks before he's ready to suit up, with Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reporting the veteran defensive back's return may not happen until the Steelers play the Saints in Paris on Oct. 25.
