ITS NOT official
It is kind of odd that no one else is reporting this. Has there been any confirmation on this?

Despite Le'Veon Bell's extended presence in Pittsburgh, nothing has changed, and the Steelers do not expect him to show by today's 4 p.m. deadline to play this season. This marriage feels over.
Steelers have a bit above 20 million in cap space with only 38 players signed. I believe they need to sign 13 more players with that money.
They need to decide between Foster and Finney first, sign Hilton, decide whether they keep either Walton or Alua, decide if they want to keep James, decide on
whether to keep any other restricted players. They can do some other gaming to create cap space, but they are not likely going to be able to sign a high priced' free agent.
Maybe we should sign CJ Anderson as an insurance policy. He's in shape. He asked the Panthers to cut him because McCaffrey has been played almost 100% of the snaps.
Exactly....the Steelers have this rare window to grab a top-flight FA if they want.Thats before contract restructuring... they would be fine even if we weren’t about to get 14 .5 million added to our cap space

Just asking, but if he signed the tender, is that money guaranteed for the year?
not really sure about that, but if he suffered a severe injury he would be out for many months and it would certainly effect his value.
That's not the Steeler Way (tm)

Good riddance Bell. Pgh now hates you forever.
I really don't care. This team is gaining steam and we roll the $14.5 million into next year. I don't hate Bell, but it's clear he has a lot of growing up to do, he's behaved like a teenager throughout this saga.
Thank God I went with the JuJu jersey instead of Bell's.
Adam Schefter just tweeted Le'Veon Bell is not reporting to the Steelers by the 4 pm deadline today and is now ineligible to play the remainder of the 2018 season, source tells ESPN. His season is over.
Bell will become an unrestricted free agent this winter, when the bidding for his services will begin.
