If you believed that former New York Jets defensive end Shaun Ellis is the man in a now-viral video who dropped a driver with a jab during a bare-knuckle roadside brawl, you're not the only one. The identification of Ellis in the clip of two men squaring off -- and one falling like a sack of potatoes when he's popped seconds later -- is the handiwork of a superfan prankster known as "Incarcerated Bob."
