Ellis not expected back until the weekend

Bills DE Chris Ellis is not likely to be active for Sunday’s game. Ellis is still in his native Virginia tending to funeral arrangements with his family after the sudden passing of his mother last weekend.

“We know that the services are Friday and I don’t expect him back before then,” said Dick Jauron. “It’s one of those situations where it’s in the hands of the player. A tragedy.”

Ellis is expected to return to the team either over the weekend or early the following week.
