Jason Babin gave Andre Ellington a bit of a haircut on Sunday.
Babin pretty much scalped Ellington after making a tackle to stop the Arizona Cardinals running back on a third-down play during the third quarter of Sunday’s game. The Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end made the tackle and took out a few of Ellington’s dreadlocks. After getting up from the ground, Babin looked at his hand and realized that he had some dreads. He cast them aside and carried on.
Hopefully for Ellington’s sake those were extensions, because that probably was pretty darn painful.
Here’s a look at the play:
For reference, here’s what Ellington’s hair looks like:
Yeah, it’s easy to see how that could get in the way.
The good news is Ellington got his dreads back after the game:
