Jamal Adams was traded from the New York Jets to the Seattle Seahawks and Le'Veon Bell took issue with the move. Shortly after the trade was reported, Bell called out Adams on Twitter for lying to him and Adams didn't hesitate to respond back.
Following the 2018 season, Adams was among the members of the Jets that convinced Bell to sign with the team in free agency. Bell would sign a multi-year deal with New York, joining forces with the All-Pro safety.
Given Adams' role in Bell joining the Jets, the dynamic running back is upset with Adams' decision to force his way out via trade. Therefore, Bell took to social media to share that Adams lied to him and is doing everything to get attention.
ppl do all the hootin & hollerin to get you brought in, just to leave…lol like people weird yooo, the internet got these dudes doin whatever for attention, even when they tell you sh*t they don’t believe themselves

While it seemed as if Bell was upset about the move, the All-Pro running back made it clear he now has extra motivation.

Then, hours after Bell called out Adams, the versatile safety took notice to the criticism, sharing when the Jets and Seahawks face each other in 2020.

Seeing Adams exclaim when both teams would meet in the upcoming season was something that didn't sit well with Bell. The Jets running back would continue to take shots at Adams while also wishing him the best on his new team.

PLEASEE TRUST that it IS “noted” then..& if I’m supposed to take “see you in week 14” as a threat…I don’t! but it’s still allll love and like I told you ON THE PHONE I want the best for you..if this is the best for you, I want it for you bro 🙌🏾 https://t.co/yyNGH5XAb3

Earlier this month, Bell was among the players in New York that believed Adams wouldn't be traded. Now, with Adams getting his request granted to be traded, the relationship between Adams and Bell appears to be in flux.
There's no doubt that the Week 14 bout between the Jets and the Seahawks is going to be must-watch television.
