The Steelers not only want to sign Le’Veon Bell to a multi-year contract, their general manager is confident they will.
“I believe I am [confident]. ... I think with both sides wanting to get something done. ... I think that certainly aids your ability to get that done,” Kevin Colbert said Thursday.
Colbert thought they were close to a deal last year. The Post-Gazette reported last August that Bell’s agent agreed to a deal but the running back then rejected it. He played under a franchise tag that paid him $12.12 million. If they chose to tag him again, it would cost about $14.
