Le'Veon Bell Faces Tough Matchup In Revenge Game
5 years agoNew York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell likely circled Sunday's matchup with the Steelers the day it was announced, but will face an uphill battle to find fantasy production vs his former team. Pittsburgh has one of the strongest defenses in the league allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. Bell, on the other hand, has struggled mightily in his first year with the Jets despite playing over 75 percent of the team's snaps. Bell is yet to have a 100 yard game in green and white and has scored just four total touchdowns through 15 weeks. Expect the Jets' coaching staff to do anything they can to get Bell into the end zone vs his former team, but even so, Bell is just a low-end RB2 in this matchup and is by no means a must-start if other options are available.
