Jets RB Le'Veon Bell Made a Statement to the Steelers With Pregame Outfit
Le'Veon Bell found a home with the New York Jets after sitting out the entire 2018 season instead of signing the deal given to him by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He didn't exactly get the money he wanted, which makes his clothing choice ahead of Sunday's game between the Jets and the Steelers even more odd.

Is he saying he owns the Steelers and is going to go off for a huge day? Or does he want his old team to come get him in a trade this offseason?
The yellow hoodie was obviously worn on purpose and Bell had to know it would open up speculation. He is going to be asked about it after the game and he could offer up revealing comments no matter what happens on the field.
i def miss the fans, always showed me so much love before business went public...will never forget that ??? https://t.co/MaRJabAmP7

He could be making a statement or he could even be trolling everyone. What remains clear is that he is not having a great year with the Jets and may be wishing he was back with his old team.
Trying to mend things with his old team could lead to a reunion down the road that benefits both sides.
