Jonah Elliss

Jonah Elliss enters Year 3 as a role player on Denver’s 3-4 defense, age 23, with a stable 38.2% defensive snap share in 2025. He recorded 11 solo tackles, 5 TFLs, 2.5 sacks, and 1 FF in 13 games, totaling 2 fantasy points on a custom scoring system.

Elliss operates in a zone-heavy scheme under Vance Joseph, with Sean Payton’s west coast offense often converting third downs. The 38.2% defensive snap share is a stable floor, but sack production is unlikely to increase significantly with only 2.5 sacks in 13 games.

Elliss has a clean injury history in 2025, with full participation in practice throughout the season. The 3-4 defensive scheme limits contact exposure, and his age and health profile suggest minimal injury risk.

The 38.2% defensive snap share is a stable floor, but the lack of a clear pass-rush role limits upside. The west coast scheme and zone-heavy coverage could lead to occasional blitz packages, but these are not guaranteed.

Elliss fits into the 3-4 hybrid scheme under Vance Joseph, with zone-blitz packages and pre-snap disguise. His role is that of a rotational defensive end, with limited sack upside in a zone-heavy scheme.

Stable Elliss maintained a stable 38.2% defensive snap share throughout the 2025 season, with no significant spikes or drops in his week-over-week participation.

Ceiling is capped at the 2 fantasy points recorded in 2025, given the stable 38.2% defensive snap share and limited sack upside. Floor tracks near this line, assuming continued participation.
