Le’Veon Bell announced on Tuesday that he will not be playing football in 2022, but an Instagram post a day later seemed to hint that retirement may be on the horizon as well, as he wrote he’s “excited for the next chapter.”
The post, which had a lengthy caption, included a photo of him wrapping his hand for boxing training. Bell told reporters Tuesday that he wants to focus his upcoming fight with Adrian Peterson, saying it is not a “one-off fight.”
Bell was one of the league’s top running backs, becoming an All-Pro twice in his five seasons with the Steelers from 2013-17. But come ’18, Bell sat out for the full campaign due to a contract dispute, which he addressed in his Instagram post Wednesday.
