It was right around the time of the Denver Broncos game that we just talked about that the deadline for running back Le’Veon Bell to report that would allow him to participate in the 2018 season in any capacity had passed. Though he was spotted around that time in Pittsburgh, he never did show up, and it’s still not entirely clear why.
There was the report that Bell’s agent, Adisa Bakari, had ‘discovered’ language in the CBA that would make it more advantageous for his client not to report, after he had seemingly been about to do so.
