Steelers didn't use Le'Veon Bell in empty packages Week 1
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell was not used in empty packages in Week 1.
The Steelers may have been limiting Bell after he sat out all of training camp, but it's notable that rookie wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster was used as the fourth receiver in empty sets, a role typically held by Pittsburgh's star running back. Even in a tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2, Bell remains a top-flight RB1.
Bell is projected to score 19.4 FanDuel points at a cost of $9,000 versus the Vikings, making him numberFire's number-one ranked fantasy running back for Week 2. He's pegged for 85.7 rushing yards and 0.56 touchdowns on the ground, with another 41.6 yards and 0.16 scores on 5.3 catches through the air.
