Exclamation FIU Student Media: Ellingson Signs With Jacksonville
Here is a clip from our story on WR Greg Ellingson signing with Jacksonville. The story will be updated later today with quotes from Greg Ellingson.

Quote:Greg Ellingson signs with Jacksonville as undrafted free agent

By: Jackson Wolek / Staff Writer

It was announced late Monday night that former FIU wide receiver Greg Ellingson has signed an unofficial contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, the same day that free agents were allowed to start signing onto teams since the NFL lockout ended.

Ellingson announced the news on his Twitter account, stating “I’m a Jacksonville Jaguar. On my way to be at least.”

Undrafted free agents usually have much more time in front of coaches at mini camps and tryouts to impress them in an effort to make the team’s roster. Even though the training camp rosters have now been extended to 90 players, Ellingson will have a very short amount of time now due to how long the NFL lockout lasted, but it is still a shot at making an NFL roster, nevertheless.

“A lot of people think that when people sign its automatic, but they still have to go to camp,” said Head Coach Mario Cristobal.
