Last night, former Pittsburgh Steelera running back Le’Veon Bell signed with the New York Jets for four years, $52.5 million, including $35 million guaranteed and the possibility to go up as high as $61 million with incentives. Bell’s contract certainly fell short of the All Pro’s expectations, in large part because teams aren’t looking to pay […]

Crazy how things can change in a year and a month. In February of 2018, Le’Veon Bell, the newest member of the New York Jets, tweeted that $60 million wouldn’t be enough to join the franchise.

With Lamar Jackson firmly entrenched as a franchise quarterback, the Baltimore Ravens will zig while the rest of the league zags, committing to running the football like no other team in the league.

The Le’Veon Bell sweepstakes are still going forward, as he hasn’t made a commitment to a team, unlike his fellow free agents.
