Bell caught seven passes for 49 yards and rushed once for a 28-yard touchdown in Buffalo's 28-27 preseason win over the Steelers on Thursday.
ANALYSISThe rookie fourth-rounder out of UConn led the Bills in both receiving and rushing on the night. He had missed both of Buffalo's first two preseason games due to a lower-body injury but returned to practice last week and was ready to go for the preseason finale. Bell is battling with
Mecole Hardman,
Trent Sherfield and
Dante Pettis for the last spot or two on the final roster, but given Bell has more upside than those three teammates, there's a solid chance he'll be wearing a jersey in Week 1 against the Texans.
