Greg Ellis told me he seriously considered retirement the last few days. Ellis has been injured and the Cowboys refused to negotiate a new contract. Ellis was getting frustrated and almost called it quits until he got an encouraging call from former teammate, Darren Woodson. Woodson told him not to let current circumstances affect his future. He said if he wanted to continue playing, he should.
Ellis decided to stay under his new contract. He says his concern wasn’t about money, but was about a long-term commitment. Ellis says he didn’t want to uproot his family to move to another team in another city.
