Pittsburgh signed Bell to its practice squad Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Just a couple days after being cut from the Steelers' practice squad, Bell has found his way back into the fold. With Anthony McFarland dealing with a knee injury, it would not be shocking to see Bell elevated to the active roster for Week 2.

The Steelers signed Bell to their practice squad Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell was let go by the Lions in late July and latched on with the Steelers during training camp. The San Diego State product has yet to appear in a regular-season NFL game, but he had 245 carries for 1,091 yards and nine touchdowns during his final collegiate season in 2021. Bell rushed just four times for nine yards in Pittsburgh's preseason finale versus Atlanta, but he's apparently impressed enough to stick around the organization.

The Steelers waived Bell on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell joined the Steelers at the beginning of August after being waived by the Lions in late July. However, he was unable to secure a depth role on Pittsburgh's 53-man roster and will be forced to seek out other opportunities ahead of the 2023 campaign.

Bell agreed to terms with the Steelers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After being released by Detroit on July 22, the San Diego State product has quickly found another home in Pittsburgh. Bell has yet to see the field in the NFL after being signed as an undrafted free agent in 2022. He'll now get the chance to compete with Anthony McFarland, Alfonzo Graham and Darius Hagans for a depth spot in the Steelers' running back room ahead of the coming season.

Bell was waived by the Lions on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The move coincides with the Lions signing running back Justin Jackson. Bell was placed on IR last August and missed the 2022 season with a hamstring injury. He'll look to catch on with another NFL roster as training camp begins.

Bell (hamstring) reverted to the Lions' injured reserve Thursday, per the NFL's official transaction report.
EDGE Analysis
Detroit waived Bell with an injury designation Wednesday, but he will land on the team's IR after passing through waivers unclaimed. As a result, the 24-year-old undrafted running back will be forced to sit out the entirety of the 2022 campaign unless he can reach an injury settlement with the team.

Bell (hamstring) was waived by the Lions with an injury designation Wednesday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell suffered the injury last Thursday, and a timetable for his return was up in the air. Since he was waived with an injury designation, he'll revert to injured reserve once he clears waivers.

Bell (hamstring) will "be down for a little bit," according to head coach Dan Campbell, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell suffered the injury during practice last Thursday and still isn't quite ready to return. The San Diego State alum joined the Lions as an undrafted free agent this spring, and was likely facing an uphill battle to make the squad. Any significant time missed will likely hurt the 24-year-old's chances of earning a spot on the Lions.

Bell was tended to by the Lions' trainers for what appeared to be a hamstring injury Thursday, Jeff Risdon of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell pulled up with apparent discomfort in his upper left leg while running routes in practice. The non-contact nature of this apparent injury seems to indicate some kind of soft tissue injury in the rookie running back's leg. If this injury does indeed prove serious, it could prove catastrophic for Bell's chances to make the Lions' final 53-man roster this coming season.
