  • Double-digit receptions on MNF

    Bell ran for 68 yards on 21 carries, and hauled in all 10 of his targets for a total of 61 receiving yards during Monday's 23-3 loss to Cleveland. He also coughed up a fumble in the fourth quarter, dampening a last-gasp comeback effort for New York.

    Analysis: Bell is off to a slow start on the ground in the early stages of his 2019 redemption tour, averaging a meager 3.4 yards per rush against Buffalo and Cleveland defenses that last year ranked 16th and 28th against the run, respectively. His receiving production has been what's kept vested fantasy GMs content thus far, as the two-time All-Pro has amassed 16 receptions for 93 yards and one touchdown through his first two regular-season outings for Gang Green. In Week 3, he and the Jets may be…read more

  • Active Monday

    Bell (shoulder) is active for Monday's game versus the Browns, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: After a week in which he injured his shoulder in practice and put his status for Week 2 in question, Bell nonetheless is available to the Jets offense. By deactivating reserve RB Bilal Powell, the Jets are signaling that Bell is in line for a typically heavy workload, but Ty Montgomery and Trenton Cannon are on hand in the event Bell needs a breather.

  • Listed as questionable

    Bell (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Browns, Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: Just as head coach Adam Gase suggested Friday, Bell was able to participate in practice on a limited basis Saturday, which would seem to suggest the star running back will be available for the team's prime-time matchup against the Browns. Unfortunately for Bell, he'll be without his starting quarterback as Sam Darnold was ruled out indefinitely with mononucleosis, leaving Trevor Siemian as the No. 1 quarterback come Monday.

  • Gets limited tag Friday

    Bell (shoulder) was listed as limited on the Jets' injury report Friday.

    Analysis: According to coach Adam Gase, Bell was "over-aggressive" during Wednesday's session, which precipitated an MRI of his shoulder Thursday and lack of participation in the Jets' first official session of Week 2, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. The exam came back clear, after which Bell noted that he's "fine," according to Adam Maya of NFL.com. Gase confirmed that Bell will be on the practice field Saturday, with his activity level there forecasting his eventual designation for Monday's game versus…read more

  • Expected to practice Saturday

    Per coach Adam Gase, Bell (shoulder) is scheduled to practice Saturday, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: With that, Bell is on track to play in Monday's game against the Browns. It remains to be seen, however, if the running back draws an official questionable designation for the contest. Given that QB Sam Darnold is in line to miss time due to mononucleosis, and that starting wideout Quincy Enunwa has been lost to a season-ending neck issue, Bell's already-high profile in the offense figures to remain constant. In Week 1, he logged all 71 of the Jets' snaps on offense.

  • Says shoulder is fine

    Bell indicated via Twitter on Thursday that his shoulder "is fine," Adam Maya NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: The running back, who has been dealing with a sore shoulder, underwent an MRI on Thursday and also didn't practice. That said, Bell believes that he'll be ready to play Monday night against the Browns, a notion that will be solidified if he's able to return to practice in the next couple of days.

  • No major shoulder damage

    An MRI on Bell's shoulder revealed no major damage or tears, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Great news for the Jets, who are poised to be without the services of QB Sam Darnold for the next few weeks. Bell's status will still need to be monitored as Monday night's game against the Browns approaches, but this news implies that the running back -- who did not practice Thursday -- is in the day-to-day category in advance of Week 2 action.

  • MRI on tap

    Bell is slated to undergo an MRI on his shoulder, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Per Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News, coach Adam Gase suggests that Bell's shoulder issue "could be just soreness. We don't think it's anything worse than that. But we're probably being a little extra cautious." With that in mind, we'll consider the running back day-to-day in advance of Monday's game against the Browns. Next up for carries in the event that Bell is limited or unable to play in Week 2 is Ty Montgomery, with Bilal Powell presumably a candidate to suit up Monday after being…read more

  • Nursing shoulder soreness

    Bell did not practice Thursday due to a sore shoulder, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: It's a little concerning that this news for Bell is coming later in the week, but the Jets have an extra day of preparation with their Week 2 outing coming Monday night. Regardless, there doesn't seem to be much concern surrounding Bell's status, so it would be surprising if he wasn't active against the Browns. Consider the tailback to be day-to-day at this point in the week.

  • Gets receiving score in Jets debut

    Bell rushed 17 times for 60 yards and caught six of nine targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-16 loss to the Bills. He also caught a two-point conversion.

    Analysis: With a five-yard carry on his first touch, Bell became the fastest player in league history to reach 8,000 scrimmage yards, doing so in just 63 games. He didn't find much running room in this defensive struggle but flashed his pass-catching skills on a third-quarter possession, scoring New York's lone offensive touchdown with a nine-yard reception and following it up with a two-point conversion. Bell's supporting cast looks notably weaker than it was in Pittsburgh, but the versatile running…read more

  • Preparing for heavy use

    Bell told coach Adam Gase not to "hold back" with regard to the running back's workload for the Jets' Week 1 game against the Bills, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Bell handled massive touch counts in Pittsburgh prior to his big payday in March, so he won't be hesitant to do the same now that he has his desired financial security. The Jets received solid work from Ty Montgomery during the preseason, but multiple years' worth of evidence suggests the difference between Bell and his new backup is huge. Per Hughes, Gase said Wednesday that none of the other running backs he's coached compare to Bell. It sounds like the 27-year-old will be busy in Sunday's…read more

  • Likely not playing in preseason

    Bell likely won't suit up until the regular season, Nick Wojton of SNY TV reports.

    Analysis: The Jets don't see much reason to add any preseason mileage to their newly signed workhorse. While it would be nice to see Bell on the field after a year away from football, coach Adam Gase has been happy with his results in practice and should give Bell all the work he can handle once the games start to count.

  • Not slated to play Thursday

    Bell is not in line to play in Thursday's preseason game against the Falcons, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: With the Jets working Bell into the mix carefully given that he didn't play a down last season as a result of his contract dispute, it's unclear if the running back will see any action in the team's third preseason game, Aug. 24 against the Saints.

  • Won't play Thursday

    Bell won't play in Thursday's preseason opener against the Giants, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

    Analysis: The report also notes that the Jets' free-agent pickup will participate in pregame warm-ups, but the team has decided to work Bell into the mix deliberately since he didn't play a down last season due to a contract dispute. Beyond Thursday's tilt, it's unclear how coach Adam Gase plans to proceed with Bell. On one hand, Bell could probably use some game reps to shake off some rust. On the other hand, there's a downside to exposing Bell to unnecessary preseason punishment. Either way, assuming…read more

  • Still building chemistry in NY

    Bell participated in only two spring practices with the Jets, so he's still in the process of building chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold and the rest of his new teammates, Matt Stypulkoski of NJ.com reports.

    Analysis: Bell opted to work out on his own versus participating in voluntary OTAs, so he hasn't shared the field with his new teammates much as of yet. With training camp and the preseason still to come, the superstar running back still has plenty of time to familiarize himself with his new situation in the Big Apple after sitting out all of the 2018 season for the Steelers. Bell plays a crucial role as a receiver out of the backfield in addition to his work on the ground. Thus, getting on the same page…read more

  • Arrives for mandatory minicamp

    Bell arrived at the Jets' facility and is expected to report for mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Bell was absent for voluntary workouts and OTAs, as he elected to work out on his own during the offseason. It's nothing new for the 27-year-old, who employed a similar strategy while with the Steelers. Fresh off signing a four-year, $52.5 million deal with the Jets in March, Bell is poised to be the centerpiece of the offense after sitting out the 2018 season.

  • Not present for voluntary workouts

    Bell hasn't been present at the Jets' team facility since the first week of voluntary workouts, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: This doesn't seem to be a point of contention, as Bell likely informed the Jets of his plan when he signed a four-year, $52.5 million contract last month. He's always preferred to work out on his own during the offseason -- something that may have played a role in his inability to secure a long-term contract with Pittsburgh. In any case, the 27-year-old has plenty of time to get in shape and learn coach Adam Gase's playbook before rejoining his teammates for OTAs in May or mandatory minicamp in…read more

  • Centerpiece of offense

    Coach Adam Gase said the Jets will cater the offense around Bell in 2019, Randy Lange of the team's official site reports. "We'll easily be able to adapt to what Le'Veon does in the run game," Gase mentioned. "It's just going to take more of the chemistry part of line, him, quarterback, receivers, tight ends, everybody just getting used to playing with each other. And the run schemes that he's really good at, we'd be fools to not to do those."

    Analysis: After holding out last season, Bell finally wrested himself free of the Steelers, and despite missing out on the $14.5 franchise tender, netted a four-year, $52.5 million contract from the Jets during the legal tampering period in mid-March. He immediately becomes the focus of the entire Jets offense behind signal-caller Sam Darnold, who showed promise in 13 starts as a rookie. Bell himself is just 27 years old, but he also had the most touches (1,252) and snaps (2,932) among running backs…read more

  • Signing with Jets

    Bell agreed to a four-year, $52.5 million contract with the Jets on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Earlier Tuesday the Jets gave Bell a deadline to decide if he would sign with them, and Bell finally came to terms with $13.125 million per year. Bell held out the entire 2018 season despite having a $14.54 million tender on the table, but this deal gives the versatile back more long-term security even though it's at a lower annual rate. Bell averaged 141.8 scrimmage yards per game over his last two campaigns, but he hasn't played an NFL snap since the 2017 season. He'll be the clear-cut No. 1…read more

    The Jets have given Bell a deadline to decide if he will sign with them, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Matt Schneidman of The San Jose Mercury News reports the Raiders are still alive in the bidding, while Ian Rapoport of NFL Network suggests the Ravens have emerged as the favorites to sign Mark Ingram. The Jets presumably intend to revoke their contract offer and shift the focus to other running backs if Bell doesn't make a decision before the unspecified deadline.

  • Won't be tagged

    Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert said Wednesday that the team wouldn't use the transition tag on Bell, who thus becomes a free agent March 13 at the beginning of the new league year, Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Analysis: Despite rumors to the contrary, it never made much sense for Pittsburgh to use the tag, as doing so would have left the team at risk of losing Bell without any compensation. The 27-year-old will now be part of the compensatory draft pick formula for 2020, likely bringing the Steelers a selection at the end of the third or fourth round. Even after sitting out the entire 2018 season, Bell should have his own price range among the free-agent class of running backs. Mark Ingram, Tevin Coleman, Jay…read more

  • Drawing interest from Jets

    The Jets are expected to pursue Bell during the offseason, NJ.com's Darryl Slater reports.

    Analysis: Flush with cap space and short on explosive playmakers, the Jets have long been rumored as a potential fit for Bell, though the interest isn't necessarily mutual. It remains to be seen if the Steelers will use a transition tag, which would allow them to work out a trade or match any offer sheet but also would eliminate the possibility of a compensatory draft pick. A third consecutive franchise tag with the intention of keeping Bell in Pittsburgh seems to be out of the question at a cost upward…read more

  • Could get transition tag

    Bell could receive a transition tag from the Steelers during the offseason, Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports.

    Analysis: Bell became ineligible for 2018 when he failed to report to the Steelers on Tuesday. He will now turn his focus to the upcoming offseason, at which point a third franchise tag would be prohibitively expensive for the Steelers, thus giving Bell all the leverage. The Steelers still have the option to use a transition tag for approximately $14.5 million, which would give them the right to match any offer sheet Bell signs with another team. The problem with that option is a lack of draft-pick…read more

  • Won't report, 2018 season over

    Bell (contract dispute) won't report to the Steelers by Tuesday's 4 p.m. EST deadline, making him ineligible for the rest of the 2018 season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: This was the expected outcome for Bell, despite reports of him being spotted in Pittsburgh last week. Bell will thus turn his attention to the offseason, when he could hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent unless the Steelers elect to use a transition tag on him. Despite skipping all of 2018, a number of teams will likely be vying for Bell's services, given his status as one of the league's best backs over the first five years of his career. As for the rest of this season, James…read more

  • Unlikely to report by deadline

    Bell (contract dispute) isn't expected to report to the Steelers by Tuesday's deadline, which would make him ineligible to return this season, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Bell was spotted in Pittsburgh earlier this week but has yet to join the team and has offered no further indication he intends to report, even though owner Art Rooney II recently told SiriusXM NFL Radio he believed the running back would be in the fold by Tuesday. If Schefter's report comes to pass and the 26-year-old does end up taking off the full season, he'll apparently be content to head into free agency knowing Pittsburgh is unlikely to issue the franchise tag a third time, though it's…read more

  • Owner expects him to report by deadline

    Owner Art Rooney II told SiriusXM NFL Radio that he believes Bell (contract dispute) will report to the Steelers by next Tuesday's deadline to sign the franchise tender. "I don't know what his plans are, but I would say at this point we expect him to come back next week," Rooney said of Bell on Thursday. "We know he's back in Pittsburgh and so we're hoping to have some communications with him over the weekend and we're kind of expecting he will be back next week."

    Analysis: Rumor and innuendo have dominated Bell's holdout, with a will-he-or-won't-he report to Pittsburgh hanging over the situation throughout the offseason and into the regular season. This week, though, the first signs emerged that the running back is preparing to report. On Monday, he tweeted "Fairwell (sic) Miami," referencing where he's been staying in shape while away from football. By Wednesday, Bell was spotted playing a game of pickup basketball in Pittsburgh, according to Jeremy Fowler of…read more

  • Big raise due if tagged in 2019

    Though Bell is eligible to receive a franchise tag for the third straight year in 2019, he would be tagged at the quarterback salary number, which is projected for approximately $25 million, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: Bell has been dissatisfied with receiving the franchise tag for the last two years, but he would presumably be more receptive to the designation if it put him on track to earn an estimated $25 million, which would easily top the salary of any other running back. The Steelers presumably wouldn't be as interested in using the franchise tag on him in that scenario, however, though the team could pursue a transition tag that would keep Bell around at a more affordable price. As for the remainder of…read more

    Analysis: Bell announced his departure from Miami via social media Monday, leading to speculation he was headed back to Pittsburgh to rejoin the Steelers. He reportedly hasn't been in contact with the team, but his presence in the surrounding area seemingly hints at an intention to sign his franchise tender before the Nov. 11 deadline. As for Week 10, James Conner is primed for another huge workload Thursday against the Panthers, with Bell potentially joining the team at some point shortly thereafter.

    Though Bell -- who has been working out in Miami of late -- tweeted "Farewell Miami" earlier Monday, the Steelers still haven't heard from the running back, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, the team is preparing for Thursday night's game against the Panthers, and with Bell still not in the fold, James Conner is in line to head the team's backfield once again Week 10. Beyond that, Bell is subject to a deadline of Nov. 13 to report to the Steelers in order to play this season. Week 11 is thus a pivotal juncture in terms of Bell's status, and concrete news pertaining to that could arrive any day now.

    Bell isn't expected to report to the Steelers before Thursday's game against the Panthers, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Having already waited this long, Bell has little reason to rejoin the team before the Nov. 13 deadline to sign his franchise tag. He might come back a few days early to help himself prepare for a Week 11 game in Jacksonville, but a Week 10 appearance seems out of the question. Bell hasn't said anything about his plans, though it's generally assumed he'll sign before the deadline to ensure he can become a free agent after this season.

That's the last date Bell could sign while still being eligible to play this season and thus retaining free-agency status during the upcoming offseason.
