One of the great offensive playmakers in recent memory, Le'Veon Bell established himself in the National Football League after having played college football with the Michigan State Spartans. Over the course of his career, Bell would suit up for the Pittsburgh Steelers, New York Jets, Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

It wouldn't be long before criticism for his having made a contract argument about race began coming in, and understandably so.
