OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Baltimore Ravens signed three-time Pro Bowl running back Le'Veon Bell to their practice squad Tuesday to help their injury-filled backfield, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Bell, 29, will likely soon get elevated to the 53-man roster, the source added.
The addition of Bell comes after the Ravens lost third-string running back Justice Hill to an Achilles injury on Thursday. Baltimore already had lost starting running back J.K. Dobbins when he tore the ACL in his left knee in the preseason finale.
Bell, who worked out for Baltimore on Monday, will provide experience and pass-catching ability behind starter Gus Edwards and backup Ty'Son Williams.
