ALLEN PARK -- Bruce Ellington's stay in San Francisco was derailed by a hamstring injury. His stay in Houston was derailed by a hamstring injury. So he was asked this week, naturally enough, whether the hamstring is full recovered now that he's in Detroit.
And it produced a very unnatural response.
"I don't know if it's fully recovered," he said, "because they removed it. So I don't have it anymore."
Hold up. Um, what?
"It's the semitendinosus," Ellington said. "That muscle they took away."
For those without a medical degree, let me Google that for you.
