NYJ RB Le'Veon Bell - 2020 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Le'Veon Bell has had a very good NFL career so far as a dual-threat in the running game and passing game. Last season, he had 1,250 yards from scrimmage which for his standards was low, but he still had 311 touches. Bell acknowledged that and has worked out like a demon in the off-season. His history says he can bounce back with big numbers and he still is the best offensive weapon on the Jets,

Fantasy Upside
Last year's rushing numbers were down for Bell who ended up with only 789 yards and three rushing touchdowns. Only the season where he played six games because of injury were his numbers lower. There is also speculation that head coach Adam Gase plans to give touches to veteran Frank Gore and fourth-round draft pick Lamical Perine. Bell wasn't close to being the fantasy player in Pittsburgh and it doesn't look like he will ever get to that level again.

2020 Bottom Line
Bell still has fantasy value, but it's just not what we have seen when he was with the Steelers. He currently has an ADP of 35 which has teams taking him in the third or fourth rounds. He has even more value in PPR leagues as we saw him catch 66 passes last season. But there is risk because the Jets offense was a mess under Gase last season, and there wasn't much help in the off-season. Bell is the 21st ranked fantasy running back and will serve you well as an RB2 for 2020.

NYJ RB LeVeon Bell - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Buffalo
LeVeon Bell had 29 touches last week against his old team but the results were mixed with 93 total yards from scrimmage and zero touchdowns. He probably wanted more, but the Steelers defense is pretty good.

Bell faces the Bills this week and Buffalo is ranked 18th in aFPA to running backs, In the season opener, Bell had 92 total yards against the Bills. Even with the favorable matchup, we saw Bell average only 3.3 yards per carry this season and his numbers were very average. Expect the same on Sunday as he ranks as an RB2 for Week 17.

NYJ RB LeVeon Bell - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs Pittsburgh
LeVeon Bell had 23 touches last week which is where you want to see him a consistent basis. He only 88 yards, but is capable of more. Bell will be out to make a point when he faces his former team so expect 20+ touches again.

The Steelers are fourth in aFPA to running backs so it will be a tough matchup for the Jets running back. Even with the touches, we don't expect a big day for Bell.

Start him for Week 16 but only as a high-end RB3 or flex. As much as Bell would like to prove his old team made a mistake, it will not be a big day for the Jets running game or offense in general.

NYJ RB LeVeon Bell - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Baltimore
LeVeon Bell should be back from his illness and late-night bowling tournament. Bell was a weekend scratch and that hurt some people in their fantasy playoffs. He is still a solid fantasy back, but if you drafted him as an RB1, you overdrafted.

Bell will face Baltimore on Thursday night. The Ravens are ranked fourth in aFPA to running backs. The tough matchup pushes him down the running back rankings.

Start Bell as only an RB3 or flex for Week 15. He used to cause distractions in Pittsburgh and we are seeing that in New York, too. Plus it could be a blowout in Baltimore.

NYJ RB LeVeon Bell - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs Miami
UPDATE: Bell has been ruled out for Sunday with an illness.

LeVeon Bell had 14 touches last week for 67 yards. It was his lowest touch total since Week 8 and leaves you scratching your head why the Jets aren't getting him a minimum of 20 per game.

Bell faces the Dolphins on Sunday who are ranked 22nd in aFPA to running backs. He had 25 touches for 121 yards in the first meeting with Miami back in Week 9. You would hope the Jets would use him again in that matter, but he seems to have not been involved sometimes as much as he should be.

Start Bell as a high-end RB2 in standard leagues and a low-end RB1 in PPR leagues. The carries need to be higher, but he should get enough targets in the passing game to make his fantasy day productive.

NYJ RB LeVeon Bell - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Cincinnati
LeVeon Bell had a solid game in the big win last Sunday. His rushing yards were modest, only 49 yards, but he added 59 receiving yards to make it overall a very productive day. Bell continues to get the touches as he should.

Bell will face the Bengals who are 20th in aFPA to running backs. This favorable matchup along with his consistent usage makes him a good play this week.

Start Bell in all leagues and formats as a solid RB1 for Week 13. He should be over 100 total yards again as long as he gets 20 touches as we expect.

NYJ RB LeVeon Bell - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs Oakland
Another 20+ touch game for LeVeon Bell and although not mind-blowing numbers, he continues to put up solid ones week to week. Last week he had 92 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown for the second straight game.

He has a chance this week to keep things rolling as he faces the Raiders who are 19th in aFPA to running backs. As long as Bell keeps getting the touches, his fantasy value remains high.

Start Bell as a solid RB1 in all leagues and formats for Week 12. We expect him to continue to get the touches and put up over 100 yards this Sunday.
