Pittsburgh Steelers safety Jalen Elliott is changing jersey numbers, switching from No. 41 to No. 34. That’s according to Twitter/X jersey-number sleuther @nfl_jersey_num, who tweeted the news a short time ago.

Elliott had most recently wore No. 41. But third round rookie ILB Payton Wilson grabbed that number and with two defensive players not allowed to wear the same digits, Elliott needed to make the switch.
