Le'Veon Bell has had a lot of ups and downs over the past few seasons. Ever since leaving the Pittsburgh Steelers, Bell hasn't been able to relive the magic of his first few years in the NFL. He has bounced around to various different teams, and for a few weeks this year, Bell got to play for the injury-riddled Baltimore Ravens, before eventually being let go.
Since that time, Bell has been waiting for a new opportunity. With teams losing multiple players to injuries and even COVID-19, it seemed inevitable that Bell would eventually get his chance to play for a contending team. Now, that inevitability has finally come to fruition.

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Bell has signed a deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who recently lost Leonard Fournette to injury. The Bucs are headed towards the postseason, and they need a running back who can also go out there and catch passes. With that being said, Bell is the perfect player to come in and fill up that role.
It remains to be seen how much the Bucs will use him, however, with Tom Brady at quarterback, we imagine he will get his fair share of targets.
