Small involvement late in 2022
Bell caught his only target for three yards during the Week 18 victory versus the Raiders.
Analysis: Bell spent most of the 2022 campaign on injured reserve due to a hip flexor injury that required surgery. He didn't rejoin the action until Week 16 and played minimal offensive snaps over the final three weeks. Despite that, the veteran backup tight end compiled a pair of catches for 20 yards and his first career touchdown. Bell is late enough in his career that he's clearly not going to turn into a significant receiving threat, so he can be left on waiver wires everywhere heading into 2023.…read more

Activated from injured reserve
The Chiefs activated Bell (hip) from injured reserve Friday.
Analysis: Bell, who's yet to play this year while rehabbing from hip surgery, was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday and has been added to the active roster Friday. He's on track to make his season debut Saturday against the Seahawks, but fantasy mangers are still encouraged to confirm his status ahead of kickoff. If he's indeed available, he'll likely assume the backup role behind Travis Kelce and Noah Gray that was previously held by Jody Fortson, who's been placed on injured reserve…read more

Could suit up Week 16
Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Thursday that he feels "pretty good" that Bell (hip) will be activated from IR ahead of Saturday's game against the Seahawks, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Bell was placed on IR after undergoing surgery to address a hip flexor injury in late August. The 31-year-old was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, and it appears he could be ready to suit up again at the earliest possible opportunity Week 16. Bell caught nine passes for 87 yards over 16 regular-season games last season, With Jody Fortson (elbow) already ruled out against Seattle, Bell could immediately step back in as the Chiefs' No. 3 tight end behind Travis Kelce and Noah…read more

Designated to return from IR
The Chiefs designated Bell (hip) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Bell practiced Tuesday for the first time this season, which begins a 21-day window for him to be added to the active roster. It's unclear if he'll suit up in Week 16, but if he's available, he could help replace the potential absence of Jody Fortson, who's unlikely to play against the Seahawks due to an elbow injury, per head coach Andy Reid, Sweeney reports.

Return timeline still unclear
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Bell (hip) is close to a return but added the tight end could also be sidelined for a couple more weeks, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Bell began the campaign on IR following surgery to repair a hip flexor injury he suffered in late August and has remained sidelined since. While Reid's comments about the tight end being close to a return are encouraging, the head coach had a similar sentiment ahead of Kansas City's Week 8 bye, but Bell still remains on IR to start Week 9. It sounds like the Chiefs expect the tight end to return this season, but they don't appear to be in any rush to get him back on the active roster.

Nearing return
Bell (hip) could return after the team's Week 8 bye, according to head coach Andy Reid, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Bell was placed on IR on Sept. 5 after undergoing surgery to repair a hip flexor injury he suffered in late August. A timetable for his return was previously unknown, but he's already surpassed the minimum four-week stay on injured reserve. So, as soon as he's feeling healthy enough to get back on the field, he'll be eligible.

Placed on injured reserve
The Chiefs placed Bell (hip) on injured reserve Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Bell underwent surgery to address a hip flexor injury in late August and doesn't yet have a timetable for return, but he'll be forced to miss at least the first four weeks of the regular season. Once the 2015 fourth-rounder is back to full health, he's expected to serve as depth at tight end behind Travis Kelce.

Expected to start season on IR
Bell (hip) is expected to make the Chiefs' initial 53-man roster then be placed on IR, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Bell's placement on IR won't be season-ending due to him making Kansas City's initial 53-man roster, but he will be required to miss at least the first four games of the season once the move is made official. Once healthy, Bell is expected to handle an important depth role behind Travis Kelce.

Dealing with hip flexor
Bell is without a timeline to return from surgery to address a hip flexor injury, ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Bell suffered the injury in the Chiefs' preseason opener, which ultimately led to him undergoing surgery. Head coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that it's an "unusual" injury, and Reid added that he doesn't expect to see Bell on the field in the near future. The tight end could end up on injured reserve next week, a move that Reid did not rule out.

Undergoes hip procedure
Bell recently underwent surgery to address a hip flexor injury, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: While a timetable for Bell's return hasn't been outlined, it seems likely he'll miss regular-season action. In his absence, Noah Grayand Jody Fortson are next up for tight end reps behind the team's clear-cut top option at the position, Travis Kelce.

Remains sidelined with hip flexor
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Bell (hip) didn't practice Monday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Bell was carted off the field during Saturday's preseason contest due to the hip flexor injury, but the severity of the issue remains unclear. In his absence, Noah Gray and Jody Fortson are candidates for increased roles behind Travis Kelce.

Injures hip
Bell (hip) was carted off during Saturday's preseason contest against the Bears and is questionable to return, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: The backup tight end was pushing to be involved more in the offense after consecutive seasons under 400 offensive snaps. Noah Gray and Jody Fortson should see more playing time in Bell's absence.

Remains in Kansas City
Bell signed a one-year contract with Kansas City on Thursday.
Analysis: Bell appeared in 16 games for the Chiefs last year and secured nine of 13 targets for 87 yards while rushing four times for 10 yards. He's unlikely to play a significant role in the team's offense as long as Travis Kelce remains healthy.

Closes out 2021 on quiet note
Bell was not targeted on his 21 offensive snaps in the regular-season finale versus the Broncos.
Analysis: The Belldozer compiled just nine total catches for 87 yards on 13 targets during the 2021 season and has just two seasons total with double-digit receptions. The veteran tight end still hasn't caught a touchdown pass in his career and enters the offseason set to become an unrestricted free agent following a one-year deal. With Noah Gray developing behind Travis Kelce, Bell may be ticketed for a spot elsewhere in 2022.

Four touches in Week 17
Bell hauled in all of his three targets for 35 yards and rushed once for a pair of yards in Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: Bell's rush came in the form of a fourth-down trick play in which he motioned under center and took what was essentially a quarterback sneak for the first down. Bell has some experience under center from his college days but doesn't figure to be utilized in that capacity very often, rushing just four times all season. He also finished with a season-high three catches in the contest, though the 36 percent offensive snap count aligns with what he's seen all season and would suggest this is most…read more

One grab in Week 16
Bell compiled just one catch for 11 yards on his lone target Sunday versus the Steelers.
Analysis: Bell has notched no more than one catch in a game this season and has had more than one target just once. That didn't change even with Travis Kelce (COVID-19 protocols) out for the contest. Noah Gray benefited a little more, but neither tight end factored much into the equation. That is unlikely to change anytime soon, especially if Kelce is part of the mix again moving forward.

Returns from reserve/COVID-19 list
Bell was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Analysis: Bell was on the COVID list for just three days before his activation Friday. Meanwhile, superstar tight end Travis Kelce has not yet passed through league COVID protocols, putting Bell in position to potentially start Sunday against Pittsburgh. Kelce's return in time for the contest has not yet been ruled out, however, so the situation remains murky for fantasy managers who roster Kelce and/or are considering picking up Bell.

Expected back from COVID list
Bell is expected to come off the reserve/COVID-19 list in advance of Sunday's game against the Steelers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: While such a move has yet to be confirmed by the team, Bell's Week 16 status is noteworthy, with Kansas City's top tight end Travis Kelce (illness) also on the reserve/COVID-19 list. If Bell is activated for Sunday's contest and Kelce isn't, Bell would be line to share TE work with Noah Gray versus Pittsburgh.

Analysis: The tight end tested positive for COVID-19 on Tuesday and now joins the long list of Kansas City players that have been added to the reserve/COVID-19 list in the last few days. With both Bell and Travis Kelce in the protocols, Noah Gray is the last remaining active tight end on the roster at the moment.

One target versus Chargers
Bell was unable to haul in his lone target Thursday against the Chargers.
Analysis: Bell has played more than 20 percent of snaps in all but one game he's appeared in this season but hasn't recorded more than a single catch in any one game.That could change next week, however, with Travis Kelce being placed on the COVID-19/reserve list Monday. Bell would presumably take over as the team's top tight end if Kelce is unable to clear the league's protocol in time, with Noah Gray also figuring into the mix more often.

Overcomes back issue
Bell (back) returned to full practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Bell missed the team's Week 6 matchup against Washington. However, he has seemingly recovered from the issue and should be in for a return in Week 7 against the Titans. Bell should continue to occupy the backup tight end role, and he's recorded four receptions for 33 yards through five games on the campaign.

Ruled out for Week 6
Bell (back) won't play in Sunday's contest against Washington, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Bell didn't practice at all this week, so his status for Sunday shouldn't be a surprise. The 30-year-old has played at least 17 offensive snaps in all five games this season, so Noah Gray and Jody Fortson should be in line for an increased workload behind Travis Kelce on Sunday.

Back with Chiefs
Bell has signed a one-year deal with the Chiefs, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Bell spent last season with the Cowboys, logging 11 catches for 110 yards in 16 games. He's now set to return to Kansas City, where he played in 2019 and will provide the team with a capable blocking tight end presence behind star pass catcher Travis Kelce.

Small role in 2020
Bell (neck) caught 11 of 15 targets for 110 yards over 16 games for the Cowboys in 2020.
Analysis: After Blake Jarwin (knee) was lost for the season in Week 1, Dalton Schultz moved into the No. 1 tight end spot for Dallas, but Bell remained purely a blocker for the most part. Even so, the 110 receiving yards was the veteran TE's best total since he was a rookie with the 49ers in 2015. A free agent once again, Bell could find himself playing for his sixth team in six years in 2021.

Bell (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants due to a stinger, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Clear of illness for Week 16
Blake (illness) is listed as active heading into Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Bell couldn't practice Thursday while dealing with a non-COVID-19-related illness, but the tight end has proven capable of recuperating in time for Dallas' Week 16 kickoff. The 29-year-old remains without a missed game all season, but his passing-game involvement has been sparse. Bell has accumulated three catches for 23 yards over his past three outings, as Dalton Schultz stands firmly fixed atop the depth chart with nine catches for 92 yards and a touchdown in the same span.

Reels in 10-yard pass
Bell caught his lone target for 10 yards in Sunday's 41-33 win over the 49ers. He also rushed once for two yards.

Bell caught his lone target for a gain of two yards in Tuesday's 34-17 loss to the Ravens.

Good to go for Thursday
Bell (back) practiced in full Wednesday and does not have an injury designation heading into Thursday's clash against Washington, per Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio.
Analysis: Bell began the week with a pair of limited practice sessions, but his full participation Wednesday will allow him to take the field on Thanksgiving. The tight end out of Oklahoma has corralled only seven passes this year behind starter Dalton Schultz, so he's not likely to make much of an impact in terms of fantasy production.

Bell (back) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 29-year-old apparently picked up the injury during Sunday's win over the Vikings, and he's been estimated as a limited participant on the first two practice reports of the week. Bell appears on track to play Thursday against Washington, though he may receive the questionable tag if he's unable to put in a full practice Wednesday.

Bell (back) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Analysis: Bell logged his lowest snap share of the season (21 percent) in Sunday's win over the Vikings, so it's possible that this injury was affecting him during the game. While it's encouraging that he avoided a DNP on Monday, Bell's practice status Tuesday should provide a better idea of his status for Thursday's game against Washington.

Notches fifth reception of season
Bell hauled in his lone target for a 13-yard gain Sunday in the Cowboys' 37-34 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Bell actually outproduced starting tight end Dalton Schultz (one catch for six yards on three targets), but don't expect that to result in a more even distribution of the work at the position in future weeks. Schultz had recorded 17 receptions for 208 yards across the previous three weeks, and he still played 58 of the 68 offensive snaps (88 percent) on Sunday. Bell, meanwhile, played just 18 snaps (27 percent).

Bell was forced out of Sunday's game against the Giants with a right knee injury, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Two catches in Week 2
Bell caught two of three targets for 34 yards in Sunday's comeback win over the Falcons.
Analysis: With Blake Jarwin (knee) done for the year, Dalton Schultz stepped up and posted a 9-88-1 line on 10 targets as the Cowboys' new No. 1 tight end, but Bell got a little more involved in the passing game as well. There could be more opportunities for both players Week 3 against a Seahawks defense that just gave up 397 passing yards to Cam Newton, but Bell's fantasy ceiling remains limited.

More opportunities on tap
Bell is in line for an increased workload with Blake Jarwin (knee) having suffered a season-ending ACL tear, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Bell wasn't targeted during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Rams, even after Jarwin was forced off the field, while Dalton Schultz received four looks in the passing game. As such, Bell's increased workload looks like it will primarily consist of blocking assignments. Undrafted rookie Sean McKeon could see increased reps as well.

Analysis: With Jamize Olawale having opted out of the season, the Cowboys don't have an experienced fullback on the roster, but new head coach Mike McCarthy suggested he could use a blocking tight end in the backfield instead.

Heads to Dallas
Bell agreed to a deal with the Cowboys on Wednesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Bell has played for four different teams since he was taken in the fourth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, most recently serving as the No. 2 tight end for Kansas City in 2019. With 38 receptions in 65 career regular-season games, Bell shouldn't pose much of a threat to Blake Jarwin.

Contributes down the stretch
Bell finished 2019 with just eight catches for 67 yards on 15 targets.
Analysis: Bell was brought in to fill the role voided by Demetrius Harris' departure this offseason and essentially did just that. The backup tight end in the Chiefs' offense is unlikely to see a ton of usage in the passing game as long as Travis Kelce is healthy, which was precisely what occurred in Bell's case -- the four-year pro recorded 400 offensive snaps despite little usage as a pass-catcher.

Snares pair of passes
Bell notched two catches for 15 yards on a season-high three targets Sunday versus the Bears.
Analysis: Bell had not recorded more than one catch in a game prior to Week 15 but has now caught a pair of passes in each of the last two weeks. Still, he played less than 50 percent of the offensive snaps and has yet to reel in a touchdown pass in 2019, so there's very little fantasy upside to be had at the moment.

Ankle injury lingers
Bell will not practice Thursday due to an ankle injury, BJ Kissel of the Chiefs' official site reports.
Analysis: Bell was briefly sidelined during Sunday's loss to the Titans due to an ankle injury, but he managed to retake the field without missing more than a couple of drives. It now appears that the issue could jeopardize his availability for Monday's tilt against the Chargers, though the fifth-year pro will have two more chances to practice before a decision on his availability is made. Bell plays a reserve role behind Travis Kelce in Kansas City's offense, and he also contributes on special teams.
