Reportedly he called CEH and asked him ,Before signing , if his addition to the team would be a problem with him and his development.
I've regarded LB as a POS solely because I didn't feel like any NFL player should hold out for a season because they get paid so damn much money anyway and should feel blessed as it is , but I'm now warming up to the guy after watching the interviews from Arrowhead pride .
He seems to have the right attitude. I'm all in now! Not like I have any other choice anyway.

He needs to prove that he is worth the salary equivalent of three practice squad players and the number 53 roster spot. Everything beyond that is gravy. [Reply]
I am sympathetic to the bad situations hes been in. I will not make excuses for them. However I am excited as hell that he seems to be here for ALL the right reasons. If he's here to play we can't be stopped. Period. [Reply]

I have absolutely no qualms with a guy wanting to maximize his value and make as much money as possible, especially at a position like RB that doesn't have that much longevity (pretty much all positions minus QB has limited longevity).
I think we are going to see a version closer to 2016-17 Bell than we see NYJ Bell.
But it was pretty cool hearing that he reached out to CEH. It is definitely the mentality I want to hear about with him. [Reply]

Actually, MOST of CP did. There's literally a poll. [Reply]

What a closed minded take you "had".
You believe that a man who SOUNDLY proved his worth to the organization in 2017 while playing on the risky franchise tag, DID NOT have the right to demand his long term security?
In a league where each snap could potentially be your last, playing on the tag is an insanely risky move, and you feel though, that he should have just done it two years in a row.
This isnt Madden, bruh.
Leveon Bell made an extremely intelligent business decision, and said Im not risking my health for your asses anymore, without some long term security.
Especially as a freaking running back who have the shortest shelf life in the league.
How anyone could hold that decision against him and say hes a piece of shit is unfathomable to me.
You think Dak Prescott is happy he signed the tag? [Reply]

In the year he sat out he would have made more than 99% of most peoples net worth . That's greed. Maybe he came from a wealthy family . [Reply]

No. This is wrong. I bet between 50%-75% of this site said they wanted Tyreek kicked off the team. [Reply]
