Evidently Le'Veon Bell is going to hold out, won't play against the Browns. Idiot's going to give up at least one $853,000 game check.

Steelers brass is moving forward as if running back Le'Veon Bell will not available for at least the first four-to-six weeks of the season, according to league sources, and have been given no indication the Pro Bowl running back will be reporting anytime soon.

Bell has yet to sign his $14.5 million franchise tag and seems intent on skipping a substantial portion of the season -- and forgoing those game checks -- to mitigate the risk of injury as he pursues a record contract elsewhere in the offseason. The Steelers placed the franchise tag on Bell for a second straight year, with Bell walking away from an offer that would have paid him $48 million over the first three years.

Sources: Los Angeles Rams wanted to add Khalil Mack, then trade him at end of season

Adam Schefter

The Los Angeles Rams made a pitch to acquire premier pass rusher Khalil Mack with the intention of giving him a raise this season, then dealing him at the end of the year to recoup some if not all of the draft compensation they gave up, according to sources.

After signing defensive end Aaron Donald, their own holdout, to a then-record $135 million deal, the Rams offered the Oakland Raiders a first- and a third-round pick for Mack, sources said.

The team's thinking, according to sources, was to go all in this season, then -- because of financial constraints -- deal Mack away after the season and recoup what they had dealt for him. The idea was to match Mack with Donald, Ndamukong Suh and Michael Brockers, and bolster their chances even more this season.

Rams executive vice president of football operations Kevin Demoff said last week that the team had made an aggressive offer for Mack that was ultimately rejected.

"We offered a pretty aggressive package and (the Raiders) came back and said, 'We just think you're going to pick too low,'" Demoff said.

The Raiders dealt Mack to the Chicago Bears for a package that included two first-round picks. Chicago then signed Mack to a record six-year, $141 million deal.

He needs to learn from a young and hungry coach like Kellen Moore.

Not sure where to drop this because he's not on an NFL roster but man, this kid must have nothing but air in his skull.

Randle has been charged with two counts of rape, but also aggravated kidnapping, aggravated battery and seven counts of aggravated criminal sodomy. His existing probation has been revoked and he's being held on $500,000 bond, and will appear in court on Sept. 27.
