Originally Published 1 year ago — by Pro Football Network
DeShon Elliott, a former Miami Dolphins safety now with the Pittsburgh Steelers, criticized the Dolphins as "soft" on Marlon Humphrey's podcast, attributing their lack of mental toughness to a cultural issue. Elliott's comments come after a disappointing 2023 season with Miami, where he struggled defensively. While some Dolphins players have echoed concerns about the team's toughness, head coach Mike McDaniel focuses on evolving strategies for the 2024 season. Elliott's remarks also highlight a perceived lack of discipline among players following a key loss to the Titans.
