Patriots' Christian Elliss to Face Broncos Brother Jonah in AFC Title Game

The matchup marks their first on-field meeting within a 12-sibling NFL family led by two-time Pro Bowler Luther Elliss.

Overview

  • Sunday's AFC Championship in Denver pits the Patriots against the Broncos for a Super Bowl berth.
  • New England is one win from its first Super Bowl appearance in seven years.
  • Christian Elliss posted a career-high 94 tackles this season and added 12 tackles, two pass defenses, a quarterback hit and a fumble recovery across two playoff wins.
  • Jonah Elliss has 2.5 sacks in his second season, and both brothers play on special teams, meaning they are set to share the field.
  • Christian called the meeting a "huge blessing" and said they agreed to a side bet with the loser "reminded forever."
