Key notes:
– Bell’s path: 2024 seventh-round pick by the Patriots out of Florida State; played 15 games as a rookie with 2 catches for 20 yards. In 2025, he bounced between the Eagles’ and Steelers’ practice squads, joined Philly’s squad in Oct but didn’t appear in a regular-season game, then signed with the Steelers before Week 18 and remained on the practice squad until Jan 20. ⚡
– Athletic upside: 6-foot-2, 35-inch vertical, 4.61 40-yard dash; Relative Athletic Score of 8.44/10. A true versatile threat who has lined up as inline TE, slot receiver, and fullback. 📊
– Takeaway: A high-ceiling depth option who can contribute in multiple roles, giving Philly more flexibility in 2026. 🔥
Overall, the move signals smart, upside-driven depth at tight end for the Eagles this offseason. 🏈
