Ellerbe No Stranger to Injuries

Injuries are nothing new for Ellerbe. The 30-year-old has played only one game this season and hasn't appeared in more than six games since the 2013 season with the Miami Dolphins. 

Ellerbe made his 2016 debut in Week 8 against the Seattle Seahawks, recording five tackles in the Saints' 25-20 victory. He initially injured his quad during the preseason and has struggled to make it back to the field as a result.
