One Saints difference-maker expects to return from injury vs. Steelers
Kaden Elliss expects to return from a calf injury that’s cost him three games. The Saints linebacker can make a big difference against the Steelers.
Veteran linebacker Kaden Elliss, a key difference-maker for the New Orleans Saints defense, is expected to return from injury for the team's upcoming matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Paris. Elliss will be playing after missing the last three consecutive games due to a calf injury. Originally drafted in the seventh round by New Orleans, Elliss rose to prominence in three years with the Atlanta Falcons, ultimately returning to his NFL debut team in free agency.
He has already demonstrated his value to the Saints' defense by rushing the quarterback and controlling the second level of the field, which the unit has struggled without in recent losses. Elliss' return will significantly bolster the defense, returning it to its formative weeks at the beginning of the season.
