The Steelers are getting really tight with their schedule. And if you’re not able to report on time, you will have to watch the entire season from the bench. And that’s what happened with RB Le’Veon Bell.
This report came from a tweet by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The tweet read that Le’Veon Bell was unable to report to his team by the deadline of 4:00 PM ET. And because of that, he was unable to sign the franchise tender. This made him ineligible to play for the Steelers in the rest of season. He was holding out of the training camp too, and now his season is officially over.

Even if his team reaches the Super Bowl, Bell won’t be there. This winter, Bell will be a free agent and the bidding for his service will begin soon.
The team will have to shell out a huge amount of money, some 14.5 Million for this 26-year old running back.
