Steelers beat: Team won't suspend LeVeon Bell, LeGarrette Blount

Why would the Steelers put a game more at risk by suspending or rendering inactive for a game either RB LeVeon Bell or LeGarrette Blount?

Moral reasons? Please. This is not church.

They also would be the first team to fall on its own sword by doing so and violate the league’s collective bargaining agreement.

All anyone needs to do is look at what has happened in similar marijuana possession instances to know what will happen. The NFL will allow the legal process to play out and then Roger Goodell might issue at most a one-game suspension. He usually does that the following year.

So the idea that either the Steelers will act on their own or that the wheels of NFL justice will move so quickly Bell and Blount could lose a game to suspension anytime soon is folly.

Ed Bouchette's column came from someone asking him about the situation because of drafting Bell in a fantasy football league. Bouchette has been around a while so there is some stock to what he's saying, although it's not official. Others in your league may not realize if this is the case so both Bell and Blount could end up falling in your draft giving them a little better value. Keep in mind their situation is a bit unclear with recent news the two will split carries, however we still see Bell as the better back to own of the two.
