Tomlin Not Ready To Say What The Running Back Load Will Be With Bell Returning

At some point over the course of the next 48 hours the Pittsburgh Steelers will activate starting running back Le’Veon Bell from the Reserve/Suspended list and he’ll be expected to start next Sunday in the Week 3 game against the St. Louis Rams. With that said, the team is still expected to carve out some type of roll for backup DeAngelo Williams even though head coach Mike Tomlin isn’t quite ready to tip his hand as to how that might ultimately play out.

“We will see what we do next week,” Tomlin said after the 49ers game when asked how he’ll balance the running back load with Bell returning.
