| Footballguys view: It sounds like Ellington and Stafford will play, but this is an afternoon start, so if you are counting on them in deep leagues, make sure to have a late/night game hedge on the roster. We should get news on Stafford Sunday morning before the early games kick off. |

Lions | Bigger role for Bruce Ellington? Fri Nov 16, 09:32 PM
Detroit Lions WR Bruce Ellington should see 'a lot more work' against the Carolina Panthers in Week 11 with WR Marvin Jones (knee) ruled out, according to Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Ellington was signed about 10 days ago with the idea he could compete for snaps from the slot. Now his role might be more than originally thought. Without Jones, Kenny Golladay should get a ton of targets. Receiving back Theo Riddick should get plenty of work as well. |

Lions | Detroit adds Bruce Ellington Tue Nov 6, 02:22 PM
Free-agent WR Bruce Ellington (Texans) was signed to an undisclosed deal by the Detroit Lions Tuesday, Nov. 6. RB Ameer Abdullah was waived in a corresponding move.
| Footballguys view: The Lions are looking for help at the no3 wide receiver position. They traded away Golden Tate (Eagles) last week and didn't get much production from T.J. Jones on Sunday. We'll see if Ellington, coming off a career high 29 catches for the Texans in 2017, can work his way into the mix behind starters Marvin Jones Jr. and Kenny Golladay. |

Houston Texans WR Bruce Ellington (hamstring) left with a hamstring injury in the first quarter of Week 3 game against the New York Giants on Sunday, Sept. 23, and is listed as questionable to return.
| Footballguys view: The Texans should lean on Will Fuller and DeAndre Hopkins even more in the passing game. Rookie Keke Coutee could be ready for next week against the Colts. |

Texans | Bruce Ellington logs 50 yards, TD Sat Aug 18, 10:58 PM
Houston Texans WR Bruce Ellington caught four passes for 50 yards and a touchdown against the San Francisco 49ers in the preseason Saturday, Aug. 18.
| Footballguys view: Keke Coutee is still out with a hamstring injury and Braxton Miller hasn't created momentum, so Ellington has an inside track to a roster spot and maybe even starting slot receiver role, which could be very productive against the Patriots in Week 1. |

Texans | Bruce Ellington financial details Sun Mar 18, 10:27 PM
Houston Texans WR Bruce Ellington's one-year deal includes $730,000 in base salary and a $200,000 signing bonus. He will also receive a $20,000 roster bonus per game.
| Footballguys view: If healthy, Ellington can get snaps as the no3 WR behind DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller. When Fuller was out last year, Ellington was the wideout who stepped into his role. |

Texans | Two Texans sent to IR Tue Dec 5, 05:20 PM
Houston Texans WR Bruce Ellington (hamstring) and TE C.J. Fiedorowicz (concussion) were placed on the Reserve/Injured list Tuesday, Dec. 5.
| Footballguys view: Ellington being lost for the season hurts their depth at the WR position, but they could be getting Will Fuller (ribs) back this week. Fiedorowicz has suffered three concussions over the last 12 months and his future in football is in serious doubt. Stephen Anderson will take over as the starting TE for the Texans this week. |

Texans | Bruce Ellington full go Thu Nov 23, 01:14 PM
Houston Texans WR Bruce Ellington (ribs) was a full practice participant Thursday, Nov. 23.
