Every 7-Dimensional Abelian Variety over the p-adic Numbers has a Reducible $\mathrm{\ell }$-adic Galois Representation

Let $K$ be a complete, discretely valued field with finite residue field and $G_K$ its absolute Galois group. The subject of this note is the study of the set of positive integers $d$ for which there exists an absolutely irreducible $\mathrm{\ell }$-adic representation of $G_K$ of dimension $d$ with rational traces on inertia. Our main result is that non-Sophie Germain primes are not in this set when the residue characteristic of $K$ is $>3$. The result stated in the title is a special case.
