We hope he’s ok
After missing the first two games of the season, Le’Veon Bell has been a bulk of the Pittsburgh Steelers offense since his return, especially in the absence of Ben Roethlisberger.
During their game against the Cincinnati Bengals today, he went down with what looked like a terrible knee injury. In the second quarter, Big Ben threw a pass out wide to Bell, who ran towards the sidelines and hauled down by Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict. He was carted off the field and taken to the locker room and this would prove to be another blow for the Steelers if he has to miss extended time.
The replay makes it look bad, but hopefully x-rays come back better than expected. We’ll keep you updated as more news from Pittsburgh surfaces.
MRI showed Le'Veon Bell "badly tore" his MCL, as @steelersdepot reported. Bell will be re-evaluated Monday, but season-ending IR likely.
