When is that exactly?

Tough, but Good Move. Totally agree with you on his talent, but does the rest of the team's success get put on hold waiting for him to get on the field?

Know this is personal for him, but these decisions are long overdue...

We gotta fire now in the Front Office again!

Injured far too often, good move. Thanks for everything Ellerbe, time for the young guys to step up.

Yep..when I seen he was already on PUP and training camp hasn't even started, he has got to go. Good luck, thanks for the.....few games I guess.

Can't say that I'm surprised. Age and health otherwise he could ball. Can't make the club in the tub! Care there well.

It opens up a spot for someone who hopefully doesn't have an assigned spot in the medical center's parking lot.

Lol. He's great when he plays. Unfortunately, thats rare. He won't be missed much because he didn't play enough to be a consistent and reliable contributor.

This further explains Michael Mauti. This opens the roster spot.

Nolan must like what he's seeing from our newcomers.

Ellerbe you had moments but were never there when it counted most. Wish you the best in Detroit.

Not sure if thats 100% the reason, or we're just tired of the injuries and expect Nolan to make chicken salad with what he has that isn't always injured.
