Bills | Ellis hoping for bigger role Mon Jul 20, 05:42 PM
Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports Buffalo Bills DE Chris Ellis has been working on improving his upper body strength during the offseason and hopes to be a bigger part of the defensive line this season.
| Footballguys view: Ellis's long-term chances of being a starter went down significantly when the Bills drafted Aaron Maybin in the first round this year, but he could still be a crucial player if Aaron Schobel has any trouble with his lis franc injury from last year. |
