Jake Ellington brings veteran Army toughness to the defensive line
Jake Ellington is a long, experienced Army defensive lineman who fits the Black Knights’ brand: physical, assignment-sound, and built for hard-nosed football. In the 2017 and 2018 seasons, he was a steady rotational presence, including action in all 13 games in 2018 with three total tackles and a 0.5 sack, after appearing in five games in 2017 with two tackles. His value isn’t flashy stats; it’s maturity, size, and reliability in a disciplined scheme. If a team wants a blue-collar DL who plays with Army-style grit, Ellington is the kind of name you don’t mind having in the room.
