DeShon Elliott Injury History & Analysis

The Steelers are set to announced the signing of S Jabrill Peppers, according to multiple reports. That comes two days after S DeShon Elliott left the win over the Jets with a knee injury. And there are mixed early signals out Elliott's outlook.

Steelers S DeShon Elliott is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Ravens with the hamstring injury that kept him out of the Week 15 loss to the Eagles. Elliott returned to a limited Thursday practice, which could signal a Week 17 return to game action.

Dolphins S Jevon Holland (knees) is questionable for the third straight game. He missed the past two contests. But this week marked the first time in that span that Holland managed limited practices every day. He told reporters Friday only that he's "day to day," "taking his time," and "coming along nicely," according to Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post. We'll check Holland's status Sunday. It'll matter even more after Miami ruled out S DeShon Elliott with a concussion. S Brandon Jones should get his third straight start. Elijah Campbell stepped in after Elliott left last week's game. Missing both starting safeties would obviously make Miami's defense more vulnerable, especially a week after arguably the best game of Jets QB Zach Wilson's career. The Dolphins have also deemed CB Xavien Howard (hip) and Edge Andrew Van Ginkel (oblique) questionable. Howard missed one practice before returning to limited work Thursday and Friday. Van Ginkel was limited each day. We'll check their statuses Sunday morning.
