The Facts: Bell is unlikely to report to the team by Tuesday's deadline, which would make him ineligible to play the rest of this season, multiple league sources tell ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Diehards Line:
As the team and its fans await Tuesday's deadline, by which Bell must report by 4 p.m. ET or be ineligible to play for the remainder of the season, Schefter it is worth remembering what the Pro Bowl back said last January. Ten months ago, Bell, 26, said he "definitely would consider" sitting out the 2018 season or retiring if the Steelers used the franchise tag on him for a second straight season. The Steelers did. There are no indications that Bell will report by the deadline. Stay tuned. I'll continue to follow up.
