With news of San Francisco 49ers star playmaker Deebo Samuel wanting out of San Francisco due to his usage as a wide receiver/running back hybrid, former NFL running back Le’Veon Bell wasted no time Thursday inserting himself into the discussion.
Of course, Bell had a similar situation with the Steelers, having turned down a significant contract extension offer due to wanting to be paid like a wide receiver and running back, ultimately sitting out the entire 2018 season, turning down a franchise tag and eventually leaving the Steelers for the New York Jets ahead of the 2019 season in free agency.
