Le'Veon Bell Has Torn MCL, Out for Rest of Season

Le’Veon Bell left today’s game with an awful-looking injury, when Vontaze Burfict came down on his leg as he went out of bounds. According to Ian Rapoport, he has a “badly torn MCL” and is out for the year. Adam Schefter must have the same source, because he also described it as “badly tore.”

Pittsburgh has been beset by costly injuries on offense this year, and was just getting all the skill position guys together again (Bryant was also suspended for the first four games, and Bell was suspended for the first two, then Roethlisberger was hurt). The key loss to the Bengals today at home, coupled with this injury, will make the playoffs more difficult.
