New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell and wide receiver Josh Bellamy are trying to spice up the team locker room with some freestyle raps.
As Rich Cimini of ESPN points out, most people see Bell as a guy who sat out the entire season to get a new contract, but his teammates see him as someone who is a student of the game but also brightens the locker room with his upbeat personality and rapping ability.
Bellamy is one of the guys who spent time with Bell this offseason and said the two actually were in Miami doing a little recording.

Former Australian Rugby star Valentine Holmes who is trying to make the team as a running back is one of the players who has really enjoyed the rap battles because it's not something they really have back in the homeland.
“To see him and J.B. freestyling together, it was pretty funny. Obviously, they're both rappers and they can think of stuff off the top of their head. To see that was pretty cool because we don't do that stuff back home.”
The Jets' offense has high expectations for this season and who knows, maybe after a touchdown, the two can do a freestyle rap for a celebration.
