Not surprised.

He was injured all the time at Clemson

People seemed to ignore that when drafting him this year

If Ellington can't go, should I start Gerhart, Fred J, or Sankey?

He was limited in practice. He didn't sit out. Just precautionary I'm sure. Hopefully not a big deal but anytime a RB has a foot issue it's bothersome. I'm having flashbacks of CJ spiller on my team last year.

An hour ago here

It doesn't sound too serious. I would definitely not drop him over a limited practice.

If he can stay healthy he will be a beast and a PPR monster this year. I'm all in!

I own him in a league, and I am afraid he is this year's CJ Spiller.

I'm not that worried about him not being able to go week 1.

For you kind sir

"Injury concerns have more to do with Ellington's 5-foot-9 stature than his actual injury history. He missed one game as a rookie with a knee injury.

At Clemson, he played all 14 games as a redshirt freshman. He missed five games due to a toe injury as a sophomore, then played 13 games in both his junior and senior years. All told, he's missed all or most of eight games in five years."

I wouldn't call him this year's spiller. Didn't spiller go much earlier last year than Ellington this year?

Using games played is a flawed way to judge injuries. They guy can still play in a game but he just wont be as effective, which usually fricks people over more.

Just looking at last season, Ellington made the injury report 5 times last season. 3 times with a knee, 1 hammy, 1 quad

I mean I've been preaching all preseason the dude should be on the DO NOT DRAFT list. He's been hurt every year since his sophomore year at Clemson.
