running back said Thursday it's "important" for him to play through his calf injury for his teammates.
Elliott, who described the injury as a "big bruise," said he expects to play in Sunday's Week 14 game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
"I mean, we look at what the team has gone through this season just losing so many key players," he told reporters. "We lost a lot of key players here on offense. I think it's important one, just because we're not out of it. Then two, just for my brothers. That's why I go out there and play.
