David Bell to begin training camp on the active/PUP

Cleveland Browns rookie WR David Bell is one of a small group of players who will begin training camp on the active/PUP list. His foot injury is not serious and he should begin practicing soon per Browns beat-writer, Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com (Mary Kay Cabot via Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

David Bell was super productive in his three seasons at Purdue. In 29 career games with the Boilermakers, he averaged 101.2 yards per game while finishing his collegiate career with 21 touchdown receptions. Unfortunately, a poor combine performance knocked Bell down draft boards in this year's NFL draft before the Browns used their 99th pick in the third round to select the Purdue product. Cleveland was a good landing spot for Bell, as he joins a team who doesn’t have a second starting wideout locked up opposite of new addition, Amari Cooper. Once David Bell gets on the practice field he will have every chance to carve out a significant role and possibly become the number two receiving option. Obviously, drafting any wideout in Cleveland comes with a risk for the 2022 season because of the inevitable Deshaun Watson suspension looming but David Bell has a path to becoming second on the team in targets with fantasy managers only having to invest a double-digit round pick in the wideout.
