The New England Patriots matched the Las Vegas Raiders’ offer sheet for linebacker Christian Elliss, NFL Network reported Monday.
The Raiders agreed with the 26-year-old restricted free agent last week to a reported $4.8 million offer sheet and the Patriots had until Monday to match it.
New England’s original tender to Elliss was worth $3.26 million. He is now locked in for two more seasons with the Patriots.
Elliss recorded a career-high 80 tackles with 1.5 sacks, five passes defensed and one interception in 16 games (five starts) for the Patriots in 2024. New England claimed him off waivers from Philadelphia in December 2023.
Elliss has 117 tackles in 39 games (six starts) with the Eagles (2021-23) and Patriots.
