Le'Veon Bell's NFL career was defined by elite production and a signature style. He is one of only a few running backs to amass over 2,000 scrimmage yards in a season (2014) and led the league in rushing in 2017. His three Pro Bowls and two All-Pro selections place him among the top backs of the 2010s. Bell also holds the Steelers rookie record for most rushing yards in a game (197 yards). His transition to boxing and victory over Adrian Peterson was a standout moment in celebrity sports.
