Bills LB Kawika Mitchell, who went on I-R last week with a foot injury, was quick to heap praise on teammate Keith Ellison, whose role once again has gotten considerably larger on defense with Paul Posluszny out a couple of weeks.

KawikaMitchell Keepin Keith Ellison best move Buffalo made n 2010. 56 has always stepped up when needed and produced. And hes 1 of our best Sp.Tms. players

Head coach Chan Gailey had similar praise for the fifth-year LB.

“He’s one of those guys that have instincts. He’s around the ball a lot. He studies. He works at it. There have been a lot of great undersized linebackers in this league. He makes up for his lack of size with savvy and the way he plays the game.”
