The Ravens lost running backs J.K. Dobbins and Justice Hill to season-ending injuries recently, forcing them to consider alternate options on the free agent market.
In the mean time, Gus Edwards is expected to get the majority of the carries ahead of rookie Ty'Son Williams.
Bell, 29, is a three-time Pro Bowler and a two-time All-Pro but he has not had a 1,000-yard season since 2017 while a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bell split last season with the New York Jets and Kansas City Chiefs, rushing for 328 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games.
