The Pittsburgh Steelers continue to add to the roster in free agency, with the addition of safety DeShon Elliott, the former Miami Dolphin. So, I wanted to look at and provide data of his 2023 season, starting with coverage, and including Pittsburgh safeties for comparative context using data from Sports Info Solutions (SIS).
Let’s get right to it, starting with 2023 coverage snaps and targets to get a gauge of the quantity of plays comparatively:
Elliott had the most coverage snaps (543) of focused players which ranked 24th out of 64 qualifying safeties last season and was targeted 29 times (T-23rd).
