After Kevin Colbert issuing a statement this morning regarding Le'Veon Bell's status, the Steelers Pro Bowl Center may have offered some insight into Bell's return to the team. Bell has not yet signed his franchise tender and would be set to lose around $800,000 per week if he were to holdout into the season. James Conner would be the feature back during a holdout from Bell. Conner had a very strong preseason and was solid in limited action last season.
Maurkice Pouncey: Le’Veon Bell will be here Wednesday. Count on it. Says he hasn’t been told that directly but he cites what he knows about Bell, that he won’t stay away.
