Even when stories came out this past offseason that New York Jets coach Adam Gase never wanted running back Le’Veon Bell, it still seemed like it would work out to some degree.
Bell was arguably the best running back in the NFL with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gase is a supposed offensive genius, though that claim gets more dubious each season he’s a head coach. It shouldn’t be that hard to figure out ways to use Bell.
But it has been. Bell has had a very quiet season and given how much he got paid, he has to be considered a massive free-agent bust.
