The Buccaneers signed former Pro Bowl running back Le'Veon Bell to their 53-man roster on Monday, per reports.
Why did the Buccaneers sign Le'Veon Bell?
Tampa Bay's star running back Leonard Fournette left the "Sunday Night Football" game against the Saints due to a hamstring injury. On Monday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Fournette will most likely go on the injured reserve list and miss the rest of the regular season. The running back is hopeful to return for the postseason, though.
So, with another significant loss to the Buccaneers offense (wide receiver Chris Godwin is also out for the season after Sunday's game), Tampa Bay needed a player who could help them score. Bell is a three-time Pro Bowler and first-team All-Pro selection in 2014 and '17 with 6,536 rushing yards, 42 rushing touchdowns and eight receiving scores.
