Le'Veon Bell Threatens To Sit Out Next Season If He's Franchised

Run his wheels off this year and let him go next season.

While Bell is a great back, the Steelers don't consider runningbacks franchise type players because of their short lifespan and they've won with lesser backs. Their offer to him last year really surprised me, him turning it down surprised me even more. But the fact that he turned it down pretty much says hes gone after this season. That was likely the steelers best and final offer. They'll use the money they save to pay Ben's replacement.

Yeah his position is baffling. Highest paid RB for a consistent winner. It will be interesting to see how he performs on a team without all the weapons, and waiting for a hole that never opens up and gets you killed in the backfield.
