Noah Elliss (born March 31, 1999) is an American football defensive tackle who is a free agent. He played college football at Idaho and was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles as an undrafted free agent after the 2022 NFL draft. He is the son of former Detroit Lions defensive tackle Luther Elliss and has three brothers that also play football: Kaden, Christian, and Jonah.

Early life

[edit]

Elliss grew up in Highlands Ranch, Colorado and attended Valor Christian High School where he registered 104 tackles, 27 tackles for loss, 11.5 sacks, and one forced fumble in two seasons.[1][2]

College career

[edit]

Elliss was rated a four-star recruit and committed to play college football at Mississippi State.[3] Elliss was later ruled academically ineligible to play college football, and after the departure of Mississippi State's defensive line coach, Brian Baker, he opted to enroll at the University of Idaho, where his father was coaching.[4] Elliss was not eligible to play for the Vandals until 2019.[5] He suffered a torn ACL and a torn MCL early in his first season playing. Elliss played in all six of the Vandals' games during his redshirt junior season, which was shortened and played in the spring of 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.[4] As a redshirt senior, he played in 10 games and finished the season with 46 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, one sack, and one fumble recovery.[6] Following the end of the season, Elliss declared that he would be entering the 2022 NFL draft.[7]
