The main reason why many Steelers fans are no longer supporting Le’Veon Bell

As I said a time or two when Le’Veon Bell was missing OTAs, mini-camp and training camp, I’ll upgrade my official stance to “outraged” if Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell allows his ongoing financial squabble with his employers to carry over into the regular season.

Like last year, I and everyone else who roots for or plays for the Steelers — including his teammates and bosses — just assumed Bell would report this week, sign his $14.5 million franchise tag, begin preparing for the first game against the Browns this Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio, and we’d be on our way to enjoying Black-and-gold football at its very best in 2018.
