Jets RB Le'Veon Bell Defends His Life Outside NFL in NSFW Instagram Video

Le'Veon Bell has taken some criticism this offseason from fans who believe he's too focused on his non-football endeavors.

The New York Jets running back has apparently had enough.

"Real s--t bro, I'm tired of this social media s--t," Bell said in an Instagram video. "Everybody telling me 'You're not focused, you only want to make music, he wanna play basketball, he do everything besides play football.'

"Let me tell y'all something. I know y'all got a favorite person, favorite athlete, your mom, your dad, whoever. So if somebody works at Target, do you think when they work their 9-5, they go home and all they're doing is worrying about putting f--kin' s--t on the shelves? They're tryin' to worry about what serial number is coming up? No. You think Bron is waking up...oh, he ain't having no Taco Tuesdays? Y'all thinking he's just hoopin' all day? Y'all think Beyonce is waking up and singing all day?"

Bell, who filmed the video at an airport, then sarcastically ran down the steps to mock what he feels fans expect him to do in his free time.

The three-time Pro Bowler has been criticized for choosing to sit out the entire 2018 season rather than play on the franchise tag for the Pittsburgh Steelers, a move that cost him $14.5 million.

The Jets signed Bell to a four-year, $52 million contract this offseason, making him the highest-paid running back in the NFL. There are probably some fans who are more interested in Bell's ability to live up to that contract than his latest 16-bar verse. There were (disputed) reports that Bell was out of shape while not playing last season.

In the end, Bell's going to keep rapping and doing what he wants off the field, as is his right. But don't be surprised if there's a little uneasiness if he gets off to a slow start.
