The New York Jets have released running back Le’Veon Bell. The shocking move was announced by General Manager Joe Douglas on Twitter. Teams that are 0 and 5 don’t typically release their most talented players.\u00a0For some reason Adam Gase was never able to put together a game plan that took advantage of Bell’s strengths. This is especially true in the passing game where Bell was a non factor in Gase’s offense. Last year Bell had 789 rushing yards and a 3.2 yard average. This year Bell played two games and had 74 rushing yards and a 3.9 yard average. With so little talent on offense it is a head scratcher as to why Bell wasn’t featured and was rotating with 37 year old Frank Gore last week.<\/p>\n
The move comes after Bell spent time liking social media posts where fans were questioning Adam Gase and the struggles that the winless Jets are having in 2020.<\/p>\n
