Le'Veon Bell Reportedly Still Concerned About Usage Level Upon Steelers Return
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell is reportedly worried about being overused when he reports to the team.
After speaking with Bell, former NFL running back and current NFL Network analyst Maurice Jones-Drew discussed the situation on the Dave Dameshek Football Program on Tuesday.
According to NFL.com's Austin Knoblauch, Bell cited James Conner's heavy workload in Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns as a potential reason for why he is still holding out: "[Bell] was happy for James Conner after that performance, but that performance justifies why he's not there right now. If you're going to give James Conner 31 carries, imagine how many you'd give to Le'Veon Bell."
