Jason Babin Rips Dreadlocks Out of Andre Ellington’s Head, Throws Hair to Turf (GIF)

This may serve as a lesson not to wear dreadlocks in the NFL.

Jaguars defensive end Jason Babin ripped a clump of dreads from Andre Ellington‘s head. We can only assume this happened on a -1 yard reception by the Cardinals running back with about three minutes left in the third quarter. Babin made the tackle on that play.

Check out Babin holding Ellington’s dreads like a prize in the photo below.
