They do guarantee money beyond the 1st year. That's what a signing bonus is. Also, the Steelers tend to turn salary into bonus money quite frequently for their star players, paying them up front for future years performance, and they'll do that multiple times on the same contract.
Also, the Steelers kept a guy like Ryan Shazier, who got paralyzed on their roster and paid out his contract knowing there was almost no chance he'd ever play football again, and STILL keep paying the dude to be on the roster when they don't have to and don't have any real reason to do so, because they aren't a douche organization.
It is much more likely that LeVeon Bell would have seen a higher percentage of the contract (And ultimately total dollars) he would have gotten with Pitt, than he will ever see with the Jets.
That said, I am GLAD that this didn't work out, because his best years are clearly behind him. Even during his best years, he's been a china doll, and we never were able to depend on him in the playoffs. Pittsburgh didn't miss a beat with Conner. Thank you Bell, for being a dumbass!
Yes. How did the Steelers do in the playoffs last year?
Pitt fans are truly delusional and think they are a better team without Bell and Brown, while turning a blind eye to their inept front office and the culture their coaching staff has allowed to divide the team, but letting these clowns all over social media posting about the team. They obviously haven’t learned their lesson as Juju did the exact same thing and went right to social media after AB was traded
