Kevin Ellison meets DeSean Jackson

USC Safety Kevin Ellison Meets Kal WR DeSean Jackson
Nov 18, 2006

[@orangekush101]

A great, hard hitting strong safety for the Pete Carroll era and forever a contributor to the usc dynasty years. RIP Kevin Ellison, you’ll never be forgotten just like Mario! Fight on in paradise bro!

[@maxchristensen9315]

RIP to Kevin Ellison. Wasn't one of my favourite SC players, but I will never forget this hit.

[@Bubba55389]

yo i know his brother keith ellison he my school teacher

[@walterjuarez]

RIP 🙏🏼

[@slangweed1414]

knew his dad in high school he coached our jv team. great guy

[@MilesJF89]

Kevin Ellison = Redondo Union High School Legend.

[@Alar1k]

Incredible this guy went in the 6th round. What a steal! One of the steals of the draft in my opinion. Yea, his "speed" is measured to be on the low end, but his instincts and positioning make up for short comings in speed.

[@DonnyAJ1]

Ellison, if healthy, will be a force in the very near future for my Bolts. I think our secondary has been our biggest weakness for the longest. This, IMHO, is the step in the right direction to rectify this!

[@Konformation07]

oh I cherished every second of watching that video

[@Drummafolife]

one of the few clean plays by a USC defense

[@jonasmama67]

Damn rip coach

[@Bubba55389]

yo i know his brother keith ellison he my school teacher

[@lupinvash3]

I could envision it. Having both Ellison and Mays next season, and then plus English, Phillips, and Merriman, and perhaps with others like Williams, Castillo, and Martin, and Jammer, I'd like to see a Body Bag game that's be reminiscent of the old ones that the Eagles laid waste to the other team back then.

[@downtomamasbbq]

RIP Fam

[@Bubba55389]

yo i know his brother keith ellison he my school teacher

[@chargersfan1111]

he is now a rookie in the nfl and plays for the chargers and he might be the starting ss, he came from usc

[@alexcentury2166]

Those were the good old days.

[@lupinvash3]

It all depends on how Taylor Mays does in his last year at USC before entering the draft. As it is, we already have Weddle at FS and did a fine job, and was one of the leading tacklers of the team. Besides, I'm already looking ahead next year, thinking that we may need a new DE, like Jerry Hughes from TCU, or a new RB like Jahvid Best from CAL, or maybe a new OT. Or, a new ILB that can produce a lot of pressure for passing and run plays the middle on line AND do good pass coverage.

[@buggzo]

LOL I like him already. Our last popper was McCree(except for Jammer)... Welcome SD Kevin Ellison. I hope you have what it takes to stay on the team, and more importantly on the field.

[@game3525]

Hopefully this kid is starting this monday, I would love him to layout Marshall.

[@sixty9fordkiller]

lol at terrell thomas coming back to jackson while hes on the ground. he probably said: "Damn, Son! You got knocked the fuck out!"

[@LittlePoisen]

Yes, very true, Weddle has some very hard hits too. Maybe we should play Weddle and Ellison at Safety, and Cromartie and Jammer at CB

[@lhedahl]

welcome to Seattle Kevin Ellison

[@NationOfAnimation]

That needs to happen to Desean Jackson, like... all the time.

[@Flanners0123]

Go USC

[@starmin76]

Fuck yeah, this guy's gonna be a beast on the chargers.

[@burton2156]

@Biggestchargersfan21 If thats true then how did you not know when Ellison was playing/starting for us?

[@j10eff]

Crazy Blitz!!!!!

[@CaesFinest]

welcome to the san diego chargers baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@lupinvash3]

You know what'd be more funny? If Kevin actually lays the wood out on DeSean again, if he ever gets the chance to when the Chargers play the Eagles this season, that is.

[@FunkyFreshEazyE]

hey artard, maualuga is #58 and is a linebacker, that's #4, a safety, and it's kevin ellison. Know your college football a little.

[@W.Siefker]

OMFG KEVIN ELLISON IS THE DEFENSIVE COACH AT REDONDO HIGH!!!! MY FUCKING SCHOOL!!!

[@neotri45]

clean.

[@johnied8509]

can anyone tell me this guys stats cause I don,t know much about him except for this hit on desean jackson.

[@Twobucktin]

Welcome to the family Kevin. Fight on Kevin!

[@TwiggyDig]

should be desean jackson meets kevil ellison

[@mortgagenchil]

"...and that's Ray Mala...MalaluKa" lmao

[@luithetiger09]

hahahaha fucken hilarious..i can picture him saying it too haha

[@LinamQB6]

@CDubSD Kevin Ellison? im pretty sure he is a starting nfl safety

[@Christskeeper316]

💨💨💨💨💨💨🔥💨🔥

[@EASYMONEYSNlPER]

Well, I can consider him a strong safety because he ran a respectable 4.7 40 yard dash at USC's pro day. Still not good, but he can make it up with his strength and bone-crunching hits.

[@stylicho]

Actually, I think Ellison had the slowest 40 at the combine out of all the guys you mentioned. That is why he was drafted so low.

[@lupinvash3]

They just got Ellis Hobbs, someone good for pass coverage.

[@bush53]

Helmet on helmet hit! Does anyone else not see this?

[@xhkxboix]

All I gotta say is... Longshore must've pissed his pants.. as soon as the ball was snapped and he took his steps back.. he sees that Huge #58 with nothing in between them. That's gotta be the scariest sight in the world..

[@EricXNgu]

welcome to san diego

[@muttareushittingme]

Why is everyone trying to compare these guy's NFL careers

[@zeewell]

I don't know, I think Mays is the missing piece of the puzzle. He would be the ball hawk we've been missing and I hope that the Chargers feel the same way and find some way to get him. As far as the other positions, im fairly confident in DE, and ILB. Burnett could be a valuable pickup and Castillo and Cesaire can get it done at the 5 technique. RB and RT are major concerns, Clary is not a starting tackle and the RB situation is interesting to say the least, but i feel LT has 3 good years left.

[@RayMysteryo]

desean jackson would wear #1

[@Sawyer5500]

I remember LaRon Landry laying out DeSean Jackson just like that last year.

[@bolt2175]

wow talk about timing up the hit PERFECTLY...this guy doesn't have good speed for the NFL, but he has football instincts and will be great for the Chargers in a dime or Nickel package

[@goSoutherNcal]

"Thats Maua...lucka." lol. Its obviously a clean hit because Desean Jackson got up from it.

[@xhkxboix]

so.. Who would be the favorable USC defensive man to be hit by.. the Tall, Big, and Faster Taylor Mays? or the Big and fast Kevin Ellison? the Huge, not so fast but still pretty damn fast Maualuga? or the Big, Fast, and Methodical Brian Cushing? i think every single Offensive player that touched the ball playing against USC those years was sweating balls with that exact question in mind.

[@CharismaticEnigma6]

shouldnt it be Desean meets Kevin?

[@jrh0369]

@CharismaticEnigma6 I think its they meet each other.

[@EASYMONEYSNlPER]

ellison just completely destroyed his chances of being an NFL safety by running a 4.82 40-yard dash at the combine. however, at 227 lbs he can still bulk up and become a solid weak side linebacker

[@2319LV]

they are going to go against eachother this week

[@johnied8509]

weddle is a good player give him a chance

[@illAvized]

Kevin is my friends bro though. Ha startin safety for SD

[@tysonoboyoboy]

dude its Cal as in California not Kal. c'mon man....

[@trojanEngineer]

He got his bell rung.

[@4dwyn]

They're both hard-hitters. I don't necessarily think he's better than Mays. I do think this kid's a steal (drafted in what, the 7th round)? Might be the best SC player to come out this year.

[@Phillabadboy]

@LinamQB6 Uh..No..I think he might be practice squad..if he's lucky

[@lupinvash3]

They may have someone better. They got Ellis Hobbs from the Patriots by trade, so he'll be in the secondary, reuniting with former teammate Assante Samuel.

[@fuckenaye]

owned

[@lupinvash3]

You talkin' bout Kevin's dad? Big fat black guy? If so, I met him at a Chargers practice at Qualacomm a couple of weeks ago. Said a couple of praises for his kid. Told him I hope Kevin lays out DeSean again since the Chargers are gonna play against the Eagles.

[@canesreciever4]

yea thats what i was gonna say!

[@atm8705]

YOU GOT KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT, MAN!!!!!

[@ptownboy32]

haha yea thats funny

[@miho1]

LETS GO BEARS!!

[@TapatioCombate7]

Yea but then again English is a good d lineman....i wish we wouldve got him too but we got some nice picks in the draft....Bengals got a D now.....hopefully they can do something now

[@banded30099]

damn they got marshawn lynch and deseann............ damnn nigga

[@danielyhkim]

hope he turns into the next rodney harrison now that would be awesome

[@OstentatiousOne]

if im correct desean plays for the eagles...the chargers play thet eagles this year so hopefully we can see this again GO CHARGERS!!!!!!

[@239jim239]

@Soulless771 its helmet to helmet watch close

[@dirtynate42]

My ass that was his forearm. It was all helmet.

[@IDiScIpLeZ]

it makes me feel good to see this.

[@ronchapman6525]

Not anymore it doesn't.

[@envyyoumatt]

hahaha hes not even gonna be mentioned for rookie of the year. its going to be between matt ryan, chris johnson, matt forte

[@zeewell]

This is prep for next year. Get the first half of the Ellison-Mays back end. Ellison will be the in the box run stuffer and Mays will the roaming FS with ball hawk mentality. I hope the Chargers pull a Ditka and trade their entire draft to move up and take Taylor Mays.

[@jdaily1112]

they could use ellison so that could be a possibility, imagine practice, jackson would never go towards him lol

[@wolfebang]

I like how Cal fans or SC haters try to cover up the fact that Desean Jackson got annihilated on this play by comparing nfl careers. Face it. Ellison destroyed Jackson. USC destroyed Cal.

[@dmilesai]

Of course our coverage isn't very good. Making Ellison a starter would make it even worse. Weddle is a much better cover safety than Ellison, but Weddle isn't even that great at it. I wouldn't mind seeing Ellison in at ILB in coverage situations though. I think he would be perfect at that. I don't think he'll be a bad player in the NFL, but he definitely has to improve in coverage to become a solid NFL safety.

[@YoshiBoiya]

We should have paid Jermaine Phillips when he visited us. We didn't offer him a legit amount. But I would love to see Hart lose his job to Ellison.

[@239jim239]

@Soulless771 oh yeah i see it now lol

[@FunkyFreshEazyE]

@thetenzintsung Oh btw, he might have gotten right back up here...but when he got to the sideline....he went right back down lmao

[@fuckphantom13]

kevin ellison is a high school defensive coordinator in los angeles. what a damn shame.

[@byronlam24]

shouldve went to USC

[@chrisharsh619]

i gotta just step in here real quick and state the fact that Weddle led our team in tackles last year so he can definitely tackle. Am i a weddle fan? no. Is he the best safety on the team? probly. i have to agree with dmilesai there is no way ellison steps in as a starter his rookie year barring injuries.

[@jjones8700]

he looks good, im just worried about his knee...

[@lupinvash3]

Cromartie needs to learn how to be more physical when going one on one and learn how to tackle better. It'll take more than just speed and athleticism to win. Maybe if Brandon Hughes were to come in at times and is actually successful with the bump and run, he could teach Cromartie a thing or two.

[@4dwyn]

True. They need inside help, not outside. But IMO, they just picked up the next Rodney Harrison.

[@SuperManning18]

good thing that wasnt taylor mays doing the hitting

[@kelvinellison7353]

That's not me

[@MrRanderson2006]

It don't matter DeSean is a two time pro bowler. weres kevin?

[@game3525]

I agree, Gregory should have been cut with Hart.

[@13KillerCali13]

lol best WR in the NFL my ass

[@Yoder23m]

@lakerstrufan24 what jackson are you watching ever since robinson hit him he has dropped easy ass catches hes a number 2 WR Maclin should start all jackson has is speed but going across the middle hes a baby and drops passes to cover up

[@slimjim094564]

@cscherer2306 no cause kevin came to him lol

[@VUDIZZLE]

it is helmet to helmet...hope kevin ellison startz play'n beast for the KHARGERz..hez pretty good on run defense but kinda needz some wrk on pass koverage...if he were a hitter like thiz vid. protrayz him to be we'd have nothin' to worrie bout..

[@mhsu]

I don't think he's starting, but I'm not 100% sure...so yeah Go chargers though. hahaha

[@Dingojack1]

Hey Kevin...paybacks are a real freakin bitch aint they ? This afternoon Desean deflated the NY Giants on a punt return to win the game with no time left in the game. What have you done in the pros but bounce around and get a job only with your former coach. He'll waive U too...maybe one day you can go around to schools and tell them,"you see that man in the hall of fame? i once gave him a cheap shot."

[@Biggestchargersfan21]

@burton2156 i am the biggest chargersfan

[@OrozcoBrendan85]

See Desean this wouldnt happen if u went to USC why Cal? your ass went to Long Beach Poly!!!!
