Packers’ running back to target in free agency: Le’Veon Bell

These next two guys are household names and useful second running backs even if they aren’t going to provide the same production they did at the height of their career.

Bell saw his price tag drop considerably throughout his time with the Kansas City Chiefs which means Green Bay will likely be able to get him for the low-low. He has certainly lost a step at this point in his career and the Packers shouldn’t sign him expecting a lot out of him. He is what he is at this point, and that’s a clear backup running back.
