Jets' Le'Veon Bell Reportedly Placed on IR with Hamstring Injury

Running back Le'Veon Bell was placed on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury Tuesday, per Kim Jones of NFL Network. He is eligible to return to the active roster in three weeks.

The running back left the third quarter of the Jets' season-opening loss against the Bills with a hamstring injury and did not return.

Prior to his departure, Bell had six carries for 14 yards and caught two balls for 32 yards as the Jets trailed 21-10, eventually falling 27-20.

Bell grabbed at his leg after making a catch late in the first half, but he remained in the game until he was pulled.
