While it has yet to be confirmed by the NFL, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell will more than likely miss the first four games of the 2016 regular season due to a suspension for reportedly missing several drug tests. Should that ultimately happen, the team’s former second-round draft pick out of Michigan State stands to one again lose some money and in the process, the team will once again free up a little bit of salary cap space.

As former NFL agent Joel Corry has reported in the past, players who miss games due to suspension are forced to forfeit their paychecks for games missed.
