Bell among tailbacks celebrating Gurley's huge extension

Pittsburgh Steelers star Le'Veon Bell, who's been in search of a megadeal for himself, was among the running backs to quickly congratulate Todd Gurley on Tuesday for signing a massive extension with the Los Angeles Rams.

Gurley's deal with the Rams reportedly includes $45 million guaranteed, a record for a running back. Few veteran tailbacks have managed to secure significant paydays in recent years.

Bell, meanwhile, has rejected several offers from the Steelers over the last two years. It was rumored that he turned down a five-year, $70-million offer before the deadline for franchise-tagged players to ink new deals.

Other standout running backs also took to Twitter in support of Gurley, whose contract could help reset the depressed market for tailbacks.
