Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell is "not expected to report" to the Steelers in time for Pittsburgh's Week 10 matchup with the Panthers on Thursday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler and Adam Schefter. Bell has not played for the Steelers in 2018 and is holding out to seek a new contract.
Bell must report to the Steelers by Nov. 13 to play in 2018. Per the league's collective bargaining agreement, any player on a contract is mandated to report to their team by the Tuesday after Week 10 to be eligible for the rest of the season.
