Le’Veon Bell spotted partying at strip club during holdout
Le’Veon Bell is frustrated that he was unable to reach an agreement on a long-term extension with the Pittsburgh Steelers again this offseason, but it doesn’t appear he is letting the situation weigh him down.
On Monday, Bell and a woman named Marliesia Ortiz — whom TMZ says is the star running back’s girlfriend — were having themselves a grand old time at a strip club in Miami. We know this because Ortiz shared some videos on social media that showed Bell getting, ahem, cozy with some of the dancers. You can see the footage over at TMZ.
According to TMZ, the establishment was Rockwell in South Beach, and Bell had bottles of Ace of Spades champagne frequently being brought over to his table.
Bell is not expected to report to the Steelers for about another month, which would be the same timeline he followed last offseason. While he’s certainly free to do what he wants, you could make the argument that he has a lot more free time on his hands than his teammates, who are currently in the heat of training camp. Judging by some of the stuff Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said about Bell’s holdout on Monday, it would stand to reason that he is not thrilled with his star player.
