Kaden Elliss Injury History & Analysis

The Falcons reached a three-year deal with EDGE Kaden Elliss worth $21.5 million, with $11 million of that guaranteed. It's a big opportunity for a guy who did nothing across his first three seasons with the Saints. Thrust into the lineup last year, the former seventh-round pick delivered seven sacks and 10 QB hits while starting 11 games. Atlanta is clearly looking to him as a full-time starter, but Elliss has plenty yet to prove. He totaled 23 tackles and 1 sack over his first three years in the NFL. Elliss also sports below-average size and speed score for his position. Perhaps something bigger lies ahead, but we're not overly excited about his fantasy prospects as of now.

Saints CB Marshon Lattimore (kidney) and LB Pete Werner (ankle) are inactive for tonight's game against the Buccaneers. Werner's absence keeps LB Kaden Elliss in play for IDP lineups if you were waiting on him or otherwise have an opening tonight.
