Sure, Bell gave up a ton of contract money, but they were running him ragged- the most touches of any other RB, and the money wasn’t guaranteed if he got injured. So they promise big money, but work him so hard he might not be able to earn it.
Surely your kidding…..Over the past five years he has averaged between 19 to 22 carries a game. Somewhere Jim Brown, Jim Taylor, Gale Sayers, etc., must be laughing…….
Interesting that most everyone thinks that someone who got ordered to play for a team under a contract he couldn’t negotiate (Franchise Tag) with no guarantee that he’d be a free agent next season is the bad guy in this scenario. So, you’re perfectly okay with your boss saying your salary is X for the next 12 months, and if you’re not happy with that, too bad because you can’t get hired by anyone else for that year. Some of you might need to remove your names from here in case your bosses figure that out.

It takes one to know one, or at least to know the rules.
