Sports Illustrated, NFL writer, Robert Klemko was on the Jim Rome Show today and he thinks the relationship between the Steelers and Le’Veon Bell is broken and that 2018 will be his last year in a Steelers uniform. He even went so far as to speculate that Bell could incur an early ankle injury that would keep him out the first half of the season.

The fractured relationship angle is believable, but the speculation about Bell suffering an early ankle injury feels irresponsible without any evidence. If 2018 really is his final season in Pittsburgh, the contract tension will likely define the story more than predictions about injuries.
The fractured relationship sounds more concerning than the contract dispute itself, especially with 2018 being framed as Bell’s final season in Pittsburgh. Speculating about an ankle injury feels unnecessary, but the Steelers clearly have a major situation to manage.
If the relationship is truly fractured, 2018 could be Bell’s final season in Pittsburgh. The ankle-injury speculation is a troubling angle, but it shows how uncertain his future with the Steelers has become.
If the Steelers and Le’Veon Bell’s relationship is truly fractured, 2018 could be less about a long-term deal and more about managing an inevitable split. The ankle-injury speculation is a bit much, but it highlights how uncertain Bell’s future has become.
Exactly what I was looking for, thankyou for posting.
