Le’Veon Bell: No hard feelings toward Steelers after holdout
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell did not get what he wanted in contract negotiations with the team, but he says that he’s not going to hold a grudge.
Bell said Monday upon returning to camp that he will harbor no hard feelings toward the Steelers, even as he ends up playing out 2017 on a one-year franchise tender.
Le'Veon Bell promises no bad feelings post negotiation: "I don't look at it as being negative. It's just moreso we didn't get the deal done"

Bell has previously been a bit unimpressed with the Steelers for not paying up — he’ll end up making $12.1 million while he had indicated that he wanted something closer to $17 million. At least publicly, he’s saying the right things about how he views the organization after the saga.
