Pittsburgh Steelers: 30 greatest players in franchise history
player. 55. . RB. (2013-present). Le'Veon Bell. 23
Le’Veon Bell has only played five seasons in the NFL and is already being debated on where he stands among Steelers legends. Whether you agree with his off-the-field antics or not, he’s one of the best on the field today.
In 2018, Bell was named the league’s best running back, according to the NFL Top 100. Despite two years of contract negotiations gone wrong, and not participating in summer workouts, Bell has maintained a level of play unlike any other.
Whether it’s rushing, catching or sometimes passing, Bell is called upon to do it all. Not once has he disappointed when wearing a helmet, and with years still in the tank, he could easily find himself as one of the greatest at his position.
If the Steelers and Bell can reach a long-term deal, he has the potential to arguably go down as the best at his position. But until his time in the league is up, we can only say this running back is one of the greats, with a lot more room to grow.
