VANDALS IN THE NFL: Elliss Named to Top 100 NFL Players for 2025

MOSCOW, Idaho – Former Idaho Vandals Football star, Kaden Elliss, was named to Pro Football Network (PFSN)'s Top 100 NFL Players for 2025, checking in at No. 68. 

Elliss, one of the most efficient linebackers in the NFL, totaled 151 tackles in 2024 (fifth in the NFL, second in the NFC), along with eight tackles for loss, 5.0 sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception in 2024. He also led the entire NFL with 10 double-digit tackle games. Elliss is the only player in Falcons history to have totaled 100-or-more tackles, five-or-more sacks, and an interception in a single season. 

During his time with the Vandals, Elliss was a four-year starter and a three-time all-conference selection, totaling 289 tackles, 47 TFLs, and 17 sacks. The Salt Lake City, Utah native led Idaho with 16 TFLs and seven sacks in his senior season, en route to being selected as a First Team All-Big Sky selection. He graduated from the University of Idaho with his degree in operations management.
