The Pittsburgh Steelers are moving into Week 9 of the NFL regular season Jerome Bettis Jersey White , and as the team prepares for the Indianapolis Colts this week we continue to provide you with features, commentary and opinions to tide you over until the next game starts!Today in the black-and-gold links article we take a look at whether or not Jaylen Samuels will be able to duplicate his solo performance vs. the New England Patriots in 2018 on Sunday if called upon.Let’s get to the news:In 2018 during Week 15 Jaylen Samuels put on a show for the Heinz Field crowd as he ran all over the Patriots. If James Conner can’t play vs. the Colts this Sunday, will Samuels be able to dupliate that performance? might not be the pass catcher fans want to see right now, but he is learning to block like Hines Ward.To read the full article James Conner Jersey White , click HERE (Free)Ike Taylor admits he once had a helmet wired with speakers so he could listen to music while he played, and Mike Tomlin never knew.To read the full article, click HERE ($$$)Jaylen Samuels Media AvailabilitySocial Media Madness Now that it’s clear that running back Le'Veon Bell won’t be playing in 2018, the team’s options become more clear for 2019.First, unless the NFL and the Steelers renege on the position leaked to the media Womens Jerome Bettis Jersey , the franchise tender will cost Pittsburgh roughly $25 million or more. Which means that the Steelers won’t be applying the franchise tender to Bell.Second, and as explained last week, Bell’s decision not to show up in 2018 keeps his transition tender at $14.54 million for 2019, much higher than it would have been if he’d returned for the final seven weeks of the season.Of course, the Steelers will have that cap space Jerome Bettis Jersey , since they were holding $14.54 million in 2018 under the franchise tag. So they can carry it over and devote it to Bell, if they want to reserve a right to match an offer sheet Bell signs.But it remains unlikely that the Steelers would match a significant offer that includes fully guaranteed money extending in 2020 and beyond, because the Steelers simply refuse to structure contracts that way. (Also, they have James Conner under contract for two more years at minimum salaries.) While it’s possible that the Steelers would try to apply the transition tag, match an offer sheet James Conner Jersey , and trade Bell, it would be a delicate process that would potentially require the kind of winking and nodding in which the Steelers usually don’t engage.However it plays out, Bell now has the one thing that two years of the franchise tag have prevented him from experiencing: A chance to negotiate freely with other teams and go to the highest bidder.
