The Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro running back is facing a 4-game suspension due to a failed drug test, and it couldn't come at a worse time.
Think back to 2015.
As the Pittsburgh Steelers prepared for the season, and the New England Patriots to kick off the new year, the team found out they would be without running back Le'Veon Bell for the first 3 games of the season due to his run-in with the law during his joy ride with LeGarrette Blount. After an appeal, Bell's suspension was reduced to two games, but the incident put him in the NFL's substance abuse policy for the remainder of his employment within the league.
