Steelers RB Le’Veon Bell wants to be paid as a #2 WR and a #1 RB

Le’Veon Bell is a beast, and this move makes me like him a little more

Former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back and current NFL Network reporter Ike Taylor said the Steelers and Le’Veon Bell weren’t able to make it work, because Le’Veon Bell wants to be paid more. He said that Bell told him he wants to be paid like “a No. 1 running back and No. 2 wide receiver.”

“I want to be paid as No. 1 RB & No. 2 WR.” – Le’Veon Bell to @Ike_SwagginU

Will he be a training camp holdout?

This make sense in a way because he is super valuable to the Steelers.  Taylor then said that Bell would hold out of camp.

What do you think the Steelers should do?  Right now they have an OT in Alejandro Villanueva and Le’Veon Bell wanting more money. They say they are focused on getting Villanueva a new deal.
