Le'Veon Bell: Relationship with Jets HC Adam Gase 'Great' Despite Rumors

While New York Jets head coach Adam Gase reportedly didn't want the team to sign Le'Veon Bell, the running back said his relationship with the coach is still doing well.

"Even if the report was true, obviously he doesn't feel like I'm not a great player," Bell said Tuesday, per Rich Cimini of ESPN. "Maybe he just feels like, 'Dang, maybe we could've got more great players.' I don't know. What I'm saying is, me and him, our relationship is great."

Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News first reported in May after general manager Mike Maccagnan was fired that Gase didn't want to spend a lot of money on a running back.
