Le’Veon Bell Could Thrive Behind New Offensive Line After Disappointing 2019

Last season, the New York Jets averaged 1.21 points and 23.1 yards per drive, both of which were the worst marks in the entire NFL. While Sam Darnold’s early season mono diagnosis didn’t help, the offensive line was essentially a revolving door. Looking ahead to 2020, that has to change in order for the Jets to find success.

Le’Veon Bell’s first year in New York didn’t go as planned. He averaged a career-worst 3.2 yards per carry and put up 789 rushing yards, finding pay dirt just three times in 15 games. While rumors swirled about his health and lack of burst, he simply stood no chance behind that o-line.
