Le'Veon Bell, Steelers expected to 'press' negotiations

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler is reporting the Pittsburgh Steelers are "expected to press Le'Veon Bell's franchise tag negotiation toward the Monday deadline." (ESPN)

Fantasy Impact:

Fowler is adding that the Steelers could attempt to "entice" Bell with providing him with a lucrative signing bonus while "protecting" themselves in the event he is once again suspended by the league moving forward. However, with Monday's deadline approaching in less than 72 hours, both sides are likely in for a grind. Currently, Bell remains unsigned. He has yet to sign his fully guaranteed one-year, $12.1 million franchise tender.
