Le'Veon Bell no longer listed on Steelers depth chart

[43Hitman]

Despite coach Mike Tomlin’s assertion that nothing has changed in regards to Le’Veon Bell’s status with the Pittsburgh Steelers, one thing was noticeably different Tuesday.


Bell no longer was listed on the team’s official depth chart.


After being listed as a starter in advance of the season opener in Cleveland, Bell was nowhere to be found on the depth chart released Tuesday. James Conner, who totaled 192 scrimmage yards in the 21-21 tie against the Browns, was listed as the starter.


Rookie Jaylen Samuels was listed as the backup, with veteran Stevan Ridley occupying the third spot.


At his weekly press conference Tuesday, Tomlin said he has not contacted Bell and has received no clarity on when the Pro Bowl running back might report. Bell remains absent and will forfeit $855,000 in salary for each week he misses while declining to sign his $14.544 million franchise-tag tender.

I love how the Steelers send subtle messages to players without ever really saying it to them directly.

Are we still concerned about James Conner's backup?

Who knows...we haven’t seen him play yet...lol

Who?

Well, it makes sense, since he's not actually on the team.

[TD's & Beer]

He's there on the roster - he's listed at the bottom under Reserve/Franchise Player

Can't people read for themselves anymore?

Roster is a list of players on the team, depth chart tells you which rank he plays(1st RB, 2nd RB, 3rd RB, etc.). Don't people know the difference between a roster and a depth chart anymore?
