Ellis out of luck

Tom Orsborn: Ellis out of luck

It's time for Greg Ellis to forget about getting more money from the Cowboys and move on.

Club vice president Stephen Jones made it clear Thursday afternoon Ellis isn't going to get what he wants.

"Greg's under contract," Jones said forcefully. "He's been a great leader for this team. I know he's going to go out and play hard, but he's under contract. That's the long and short of it."

Considering his age and injury problems, Ellis has no leverage. The smart thing to do would be forget about his contract and concentrate on getting healthy.
