Le’Veon Bell ends tumultuous week by being Jets bright spot

BALTIMORE — Five nights earlier, Le’Veon Bell bowled a career-high 251 at the Boonton, N.J. lanes the night before the Jets beat the Dolphins, a game he sat out with the flu.

On Thursday night, Bell rushed for his Jets high — 87 yards on 21 carries — in a 42-21 loss to the Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium.

Bell’s rushing performance was one of a few positives to come out of the lopsided loss to the 12-2 Ravens. It, too, came just a couple of days after he conceded he didn’t feel he’s been utilized properly by head coach Adam Gase.
