Steelers' Bell vows to win suspension appeal

Jason Bridge-USA TODAY Sports

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell made his Twitter profile private after news broke that he's facing a four-game suspension for reportedly missing multiple drug tests.

But Bell hasn't gone completely silent on social media. The running back - or someone logged in to his verified Instagram account - responded to a post by another Instagram user depicting Bell wearing the gas mask bong made famous by Laremy Tunsil.

In the response, Bell vowed to win the appeal of his suspension.

your the realist...I'm gonna win the appeal...ppl have no idea what happened, but don't worry...let em hate, when I end up missin no games at all, ppl for sure gonna try to love me again and I'm only ridin with my LOYAL fans!! I appreciate youu bro

If Bell truly did skip multiple drug tests, it's difficult to imagine how he could win an appeal. But perhaps he knows something that hasn't been reported and will indeed be on the field come Week 1.
