Gase, Bell had 'good talk' after RB's posts denying hamstring injury

New York Jets head coach Adam Gase and running back Le'Veon Bell have addressed their latest issue.

Bell was frustrated after the Jets pulled him out of Wednesday's practice for precautionary reasons. The star ball carrier took to Twitter to deny he was sidelined because of hamstring "tightness," as Gase told reporters.

The three-time Pro Bowler also took shots at how the Jets have been managing his practicing time.

Although Gase wasn't expecting Bell's posts on social media, they have talked about the situation.

"I was caught off-guard a little bit. But we had a good talk," Gase said Saturday, according to Manish Mehta of the NY Daily News. "I told him, 'I felt like our relationship was way better than him going on social media.'"

The 42-year-old coach added that Bell can "come to him about anything" rather than social media, according to Kim Jones of NFL Network.

Bell and Gase debuted for the Jets in 2019, but both failed to match expectations. The 28-year-old runner amassed a career-low 3.2 yards per carry while New York logged their fourth straight losing campaign.
