The Bruce Ellington era in New England was not a very long one.
The veteran wide out was released on Wednesday with an injury waiver. The 27-year-old was signed during the start of free agency.
For his career, Ellington has appeared in 44 games with nine starts and totaled 79 receptions for 769 yards and five touchdowns. He has also returned 48 punts for 372 yards and 50 kickoffs for 1,279 yards.
In 2018, Ellington began the year with the Texans and played three games and posted eight receptions for 92 yards and one touchdown before being released in October. He signed with the Lions in November and appeared in four games with two starts and caught 23 passes for 132 yards.
The receiver position is one that likely still needs to be added to by the time training camp rolls around.
