• The team designation and multiple reports said he was doubtful to return late in the first half at MetLife Stadium.
• Clark is slated to replace him, with local reporting suggesting Jalen Ramsey could shift inside if needed.
• Elliott earned a two-year extension through 2027 after a standout 2024 that included a 97.3% tackle efficiency and top run-defense grades.
