Le'Veon Bell

Le'Veon Bell explodes for 186 scrimmage yards in Week 4

Le'Veon Bell was force-fed the ball against the Ravens on Sunday as he took 35 carries for 144 yards while finding pay-dirt twice during Pittsburgh's 26-9 win over the Ravens. Bell also tied for the team-high in receptions on the day, snagging four balls for 42 yards on six targets.

Fantasy Impact:

It was only a matter of time before Todd Haley unleashed the beast. Bell was given the ball early and often as his workload, 35 carries, was the second-heaviest he's ever shouldered during his NFL career. No matter. The Steelers went to Bell nine times during their opening 14-play drive as well as handing him the rock on six of seven plays during their final touchdown drive. The two touchdowns were a nice exclamation point for Bell's 2017 breakout, but they won't come every week. However, you can count on his yardage totals being similar to this most weeks.
