Le'Veon Bell's holdout apparently has a predetermined expiry date.
The Steelers' star running back responded to a Twitter user Tuesday, tacitly admitting that he'd return to the club on September 1.
It should be noted that Bell's winking emoji makes it hard to determine if he's being serious about his return.

Bell has yet to sign his franchise tender that will pay him $12.1 million for the upcoming season, the highest figure for any running back in the NFL.
If Bell is to be taken seriously, this is a fantastic development for the Steelers organization, who are intent on unseating the New England Patriots in the AFC.
