Judging by comments made Wednesday morning by his agent on SiriusXM NFL Radio, it doesn’t sound like Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell will be showing up to sign his franchise tag tender anytime soon. Additionally, Bell’s agent, Adisa Bakari, essentially blamed how the Steelers organization does business as the reason why we have arrived at where we’re currently at regarding Bell.
Bakari inferred during his Wednesday morning interview that Steelers essentially missed a golden opportunity to take advantage of a stipulation in the current CBA that would have allowed them to sign Bell to a long-term deal after his second season in the NFL.
