Fantasy Alert: Le'Veon Bell Won't Play for Jets vs. Dolphins Because of Illness

New York Jets running back Le’Veon Bell will miss Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins due to an illness, the team announced Saturday.

It will be the first missed game of the year for Bell.

Bell already suffered a knee injury that required an MRI during a November loss to the Miami Dolphins and has dealt with physical setbacks throughout his career. He played just six games in 2015 as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers because of a torn MCL and didn’t make his season debut until October the following year.
