After playing in a Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs last season, Le’Veon Bell hasn’t said if he’ll retire or find another team for 2021.
It sounds like it’s the latter.
Bell had a workout with the Baltimore Ravens on Monday, according to Ari Meirov of Pro Football Focus.
Gus Edwards and Ty’Son Williams are the only healthy RBs on the #Ravens roster. In a week span, JK Dobbins tore his ACL and Justice Hill tore his Achilles
They brought in Todd Gurley in June and he’s still a FA. LeVeon Bell, DeVonta Freeman & Elijah Holyfield were all in today.

Bell, a 2nd-round pick by the Steelers in the 2013 NFL Draft, is a 3-time Pro Bowler and 2-time All-Pro nominee. But his career has fallen off since missing the 2018 season after not signing his franchise tender. He inked a 4-year, $52.5 million deal with the New York Jets in 2019, and he signed a one-year contract with Kansas City after the Jets released him in October 2020.
Now, we’ll have to wait and see if the Michigan State great can continue in the NFL.
