Pittsburgh — Former Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets running back Le’Veon Bell, who starred in college at Michigan State, says he smoked marijuana before playing some NFL games during his career.
“That's what I did,” Bell told Barstool Sports' “Steel Here” podcast which was published Friday. "When I was playing football, I smoked, bro. Even before the games, I’d smoke and I’d go out there and run for 150 (yards), two (touchdowns).”
Jersey Jerry, who co-hosts the podcast with Kevin Adams, then asked: "In the NFL?”
“Yeah,” said the 31-year-old Bell, who hasn't played in the league since the 2021 season.
