Le’Veon Bell looked and sounded like a player who is frustrated with his role and tired of losing.

Bell didn’t throw his coach under the bus after he was seemingly a forgotten man in Sunday’s 22-6 loss to the Bengals, but he said plenty without saying too much.

More than once Bell said, “I’m not surprised” when asked about Adam Gase going away from the run game against the worst run defense in the NFL.
