Bell was never a locker room cancer.

This. Specifically, Bell basically told his teammates that he WOULD be there, and then he was a no-show, because he didn't want to spend another year on his 2nd franchise tag. That's what started all the "he's a cancer," stuff. But none of his actual PIT teammates ever called him a cancer. They were literally just unhappy because they expected him to be there, and then he wasn't.

I'm excited for him to be here. But he needs to do a lot to earn trust. And we have to have a short leash at any hint of misbehaving. |

Didn't say there's anything wrong with being pissed off. We've seen a billion contract disputes like this. The problem was the way he treated his teammates. They said he didn't talk to any of them. Wouldn't respond to anyone's texts or communications. We've never seen a locker room turn on a holdout like this. Take it out on your front office. Not your teammates. Maybe it was just immaturity. I'm not saying hes guaranteed locker room poison. But I'm not going to make excuses where mistakes were made. He did not handle that well.

Bell saying he has never played with anyone as talented as Patrick Mahomes.

By the way he also skipped the Jets first voluntary workout even though his team made it clear they preferred he be there. So yeah, plenty of excuses for why he made the business decisions he made. But his history as a teammate is justifiably sketchy. |

Bell didn't contact anyone on the advice of agent, who was trying to get a long term deal worked out for him after being tagged the year before. Good ****ing grief. |
