Cleveland Browns

Elliott was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the third round with the 88th overall pick of the 2020 NFL draft.[10] He signed his rookie contract with the Browns on July 2, 2020.[11] After two years in a rotational role, he was a full-time starter in 2022 and 2023.

San Francisco 49ers

On March 14, 2024, Elliott signed a two-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers.[12] In 2024 he saw his role in the team increase due to injuries to Kevin Givens and Javon Hargrave.[13] Elliott played 15 games and started 13, recording 19 tackles, two tackles for losses, and two quarterback hits. He missed one game in October with a knee injury and another in November with a concussion.[14][15]

Tennessee Titans

On March 12, 2026, Elliott signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Tennessee Titans.[16] On October 20, the Titans announced that Elliott had been released from the team. The move came after Elliott got into a practice altercation with JC Latham at the team facility, and responded by trying to retrieve a gun from his car.[17] It is a violation of NFL policies for a player to bring a gun to any league-affiliated facility.[18]
