The Pittsburgh Steelers reportedly remain open to trading running back Le'Veon Bell prior to Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET trade deadline.
According to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, owner Art Rooney has given the go ahead to find a trade partner for Bell if one exists.
La Canfora noted that the Steelers are hoping to land an offer of a third-round pick or better.
The biggest stumbling block in a potential deal is that Bell has yet to sign his franchise tender and report to the Steelers.
Unless Bell signs the tender, he is not eligible to be traded since he is not technically part of the Steelers' roster.
