Steelers Sign Safety DeShon Elliott to 2-Year Deal
The move bolsters Pittsburgh's defensive lineup and addresses their need for safety depth.
- The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed free agent safety DeShon Elliott to a 2-year, $6 million contract.
- Elliott, who previously played for the Baltimore Ravens, Detroit Lions, and Miami Dolphins, brings experience and depth to the Steelers' safety position.
- The signing addresses the Steelers' need for safety depth following the release of Keanu Neal and adds to their defensive capabilities.
- Elliott's contract will have a minimal impact on the Steelers' salary cap, allowing the team to pursue additional signings.
- The Miami Dolphins, having lost Elliott to the Steelers, have agreed to terms with former Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer on a one-year deal.
