Report: Le'Veon Bell Expected to Return to Steelers During Week 7 Bye

Le'Veon Bell will make his return to the Steelers by the end of October, per ESPN's Jeremy Folwer, with the three-time Pro Bowler expecting to "report to the Steelers during the Week 7 bye."

Bell has held out of Pittsburgh's first four games this season due to a contract dispute. He has been fined $853,000 for each game he's sat out in 2018.

The Steelers offense struggled in Week 4 without the Michigan State product, scoring just 14 points against the Ravens. Pittsburgh ranked fifth in the NFL in points per game last season behind 1,291 rushing yards and nine touchdowns from Bell.
