The Packers placed Bell on injured reserve Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Bell was inactive for Sunday's game versus Atlanta after suffering a knee injury the week prior. He has been officially shut down for the rest of 2018, prompting the Packers to add some depth along the offensive line in the form of Nico Siragusa.

Bell (knee) is inactive for Sunday's Week 14 tilt against Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Bell's status comes as no surprise after he was held out of practice all week. He's one of three starting offensive lineman that are inactive for Green Bay. Look for Justin McCray or Lucas Patrick to draw the start at right guard in place of Bell.

Bell is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals due to a knee injury.
EDGE Analysis
Bell left the field during the second quarter. Justin McCray will draw the start at right guard as long as Bell remains sidelined. With Bryan Bulaga (knee) also questionable to return, the Packers' offensive line could prove a liability Week 13.

The Packers expect Bell to start at right guard Sunday against the Bills, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell would be replacing Justin McCray (shoulder) with the first-unit. McCray's injury is not expected to keep him sidelined long-term, but Bell could see a big role in the immediate future. He suited up for 12 games in Dallas last year, but saw just two starts.

Bell is on track to start at left tackle Sunday against the Eagles with Tyron Smith (groin/back) unlikely to play, Jane Slater of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Cowboys struggled mightily to replace Smith, a four-time All-Pro, in the Week 10 loss to the Falcons, with his replacement in the starting lineup, Chaz Green, surrendering five sacks. Green was pulled in favor of Bell later in the contest, but the 28-year-old didn't fare much better, conceding two sacks in relief. It nonetheless appears that will be enough to earn Bell the right to protect Dak Prescott's blind side in Week 10, which could inhibit the productivity of the Dallas offense for the second week in a row.

Bell (ankle) participated in drills at Cowboys' practice, David Helman of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell spent most of 2016 on injured reserve with an ankle injury. He was signed to a one-year, "prove-it" deal in March, and now he'll be healthy enough to fight for a spot on one of the best offensive fronts in football.

Bell (ankle) signed a one-year contract with the Cowboys on Friday, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell last played in 2015 when he started 16 games for the Titans. He's a versatile offensive lineman who has lined up at left guard and both tackle positions at the professional level and is expected to compete with Chaz Green for the Cowboys' starting right tackle job this summer in the wake of Doug Free's retirement.

Bell is currently on the injured reserve list with a season-ending ankle injury, Tyler Dragon of NFL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell dislocated his ankle back in the first day of OTAs. Rookie first-round draft pick Jack Conklin has filled in nicely at right tackle and will present a major obstacle for Bell to return to starting status in 2017.

Panthers re-signed LT Byron Bell to a one-year, $2.187 million contract. A restricted free agent tendered at the second-round level, Bell stalled, but predictably couldn't find a team willing to submit an offer sheet. The 6-foot-5, 340-pound former undrafted free agent struggled at right tackle last season, but the Panthers believe he's a better fit on the blindside because it was his college position. Carolina's tackle situation is a major concern.

Panthers coach Ron Rivera is convinced Byron Bell will benefit from moving to left tackle this season. Bell was a liability in pass protection at right tackle last year, but Rivera believes he's a better fit on the left side because that's where he played in college. The Panthers offensive line is a major concern after losing Jordan Gross to retirement, with Nate Chandler currently penciled in opposite Bell. ESPN's David Newton "would be surprised" if Carolina didn't draft a tackle in the first round.
