Le'Veon Bell doesn't regret bowling trip: 'I wasn't a distraction until now'

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- A flu-stricken Le'Veon Bell went bowling last Saturday night and the result was a split.

New York Jets coach Adam Gase said Tuesday the star running back's late night on the lanes was a bad optic for Bell and the organization, considering he was too sick to play in Sunday's game.

Bell responded later Tuesday, showing no remorse and claiming his only regret was that he was spotted in public. He joked about it, noting he bowled a career-high 251 "coming off the flu."

"I don't feel bad about what I did," Bell said.
