The Dolphins signed Bell from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the Steelers.
EDGE Analysis
Bell is now eligible to play for the Dolphins for the rest of the 2025 campaign after being elevated from the practice squad for the maximum of three times. He has one assisted tackle across three regular-season games, and he gives Miami more depth at linebacker and another contributor on special teams.

Bell is slated to re-sign with the Dolphins on a one-year, $1.5 million contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bell is coming off a solid 2024 campaign in which he contributed both as a standout on special teams and in a depth role on defense due to injuries elsewhere in Miami's linebacker corps. While he doesn't profile as a legitimate breakout candidate for IDP purposes, Bell could conceivably take another step forward after an additional offseason to grow in the Dolphins' defensive scheme.

Bell finished the 2024 regular season with 27 tackles (16 solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass defense and one forced fumble across 17 games.
EDGE Analysis
Before the start of the 2024 campaign, Bell had played in 10 regular-season games since being selected by the Raiders in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Bell ended up playing 619 snaps across 17 games in 2024, and while the majority of those came on special teams, he did earn a rotational role at linebacker due to injuries to Jaelan Phillips (knee), Tyus Bowser (knee) and others. Bell is a restricted free agent, which means the Dolphins have the ability to match any offer that another team makes for the linebacker's services.

Bell was placed on the Falcons' practice squad COVID-19 list Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Bell was one of 25 players who tested positive for COVID on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. He has yet to move up from the practice squad this season after appearing in five games for Tampa Bay in 2020. The Prairie View A&M product will try to get healthy and clear protocols, so he can continue to work towards gaining an active roster spot.

Bell was waived by the Buccaneers on Monday, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Bell (undisclosed) was able to suit up for Tuesday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear how Bell picked up the injury, but he hasn't been able to take the field for the past week. The Prairie View A&M product is still new to the linebacker position, considering he made the switch from wide receiver just this past season. Now healthy, Bell is expected to battle for a depth and special teams role with a solidified unit in front of him.

Head coach Jon Gruden said Tuesday that Bell's undisclosed injury is "not as serious as we feared" and that he should return sometime between a week and 10 days, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Raiders selected Bell in the seventh round of this year's draft. The rookie played wide receiver in his first three seasons at Prairie View A&M, but switched to linebacker his senior season and racked up 7.5 sacks and 10 tackles for a loss. Oakland already has three fairly consistent starters at linebacker in their 4-3 system in Vontaze Burfict, Brandon Marshall and Tahir Whitehead, so Bell, when healthy, can seemingly only compete for a depth or special teams role in 2019.
