The Pittsburgh Steelers have a slightly important football game to play today, but offseason decisions still loom. Running back Le’Veon Bell said earlier this week he would consider holding out and potentially retiring if the organization used the franchise tag on him for a second straight season. NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport said on Sunday morning that the team is still planning on using the tag, in spite of the threat.
Bell attempted to walk back the threat, saying he was focused on winning a Super Bowl right now, and would deal with next year later.
