Mike Prisuta is reporting that Le’Veon Bell will be starting against the Redskins tonight. After bruising his knee on Thursday, it didn’t seem likely that he would see playing time tonight.
Le'Veon Bell scheduled to get the start at RB for the Steelers tonight against the Redskins

Bell, who said last spring that he’s never missed a practice due to an injury -all the way back to Pop Warner – clearly has a history of durability. He practiced Friday and Saturday, and is said to have a clean bill of health, so the coaching staff seems to see no need to sit him tonight. This is great news, and certainly all of Steeler Nation is excited to see him in action tonight.
