Ellis went on Michael Irvin’s ESPN 103.3 radio show today and covered a lot of familiar ground if you paid attention to his complaints last season. He complained about his role (too much coverage and not enough playing time) and mentioned how it was impossible for him to be a leader if he wasn’t on the field.
In the midst of that, he dropped what sounded like a pretty big bomb: DeMarcus Ware would take himself out of games to force the coaches to put Ellis on the field.
“It’s a disgrace when DeMarcus Ware comes off the field just so I can get in the game and when the coaches tell him to come on the field, he tries to hide so I can play,” Ellis said. “And you’re telling me we’re trying to win the Super Bowl?”
