Saints' Kaden Elliss: Back on practice field Wednesday
Elliss (calf) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Elliss has been sidelined for the Saints' past three games due to a calf injury, but it now seems there's been some progress in his recovery, and he might have a chance to return to game action in Week 7. He'll still probably have to log a full practice Thursday or Friday to avoid taking an injury designation into the weekend.

Saints' Kaden Elliss: Sidelined for Week 6
Elliss (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, Jeff Nowak of The Big 870 New Orleans reports.
Elliss will miss a third consecutive game due to a calf injury. His next chance to play is Week 7 against the Steelers on Sunday, Oct. 25, though Elliss has yet to be cleared to practice. Danny Stutsman will once again start alongside Pete Werner at inside linebacker in Elliss's absence.

Elliss was also deemed DNP on Wednesday's practice estimate. The veteran linebacker didn't practice at all last week due to a calf injury and missed this past Monday's loss to Atlanta.

Elliss (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Falcons, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Elliss will miss his first game of the 2026 season due to a calf injury. Pete Werner (neck) is also listed as questionable, so the Saints may have to start Danny Stutsman and Isaiah Stalbird at inside linebacker for Monday's NFC South showdown. Elliss' next opportunity to play is Week 5 against the Vikings on Sunday, Oct. 11.

Elliss has now missed consecutive sessions due to a calf injury. The linebacker has one more opportunity to log a limited practice Saturday.

Elliss recorded six tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 24-17 win at Baltimore.

Saints' Kaden Elliss: Records three QB hits in Week 1 loss
Elliss posted nine tackles (three solo) and one pass defense during the Saints' 31-30 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Elliss was also credited with three hits on Lions quarterback Jared Goff, though the former was unable to log a sack in Sunday's regular-season opener. Elliss was one of four Saints players to play all 77 defensive snaps, and he finished as the team's second-leading tackler behind Jonas Sanker (10). Elliss inked a three-year, $33 million contract with New Orleans in March and is a key piece to the team's defensive unit alongside Sanker, Cameron Jordan (hamstring), Carl Granderson and Kool-Aid McKinstry.
