Chris Bell needs to work from the slot. Bell has the size, strength, and speed to be an outside receiver. But so far, he has struggled generating consistent separation. What we HAVE seen, and saw against the Jets, was his ability AFTER the catch.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Bell's YAC prowess and separation struggles suggest slot role maximizes value.

Chris Bell should move to the slot despite having the size, strength, and speed for outside receiver work. Bell has struggled generating consistent separation on the perimeter but has shown elite YAC ability and physicality after the catch; against Cincinnati he had a long run, and against the Jets he gained 8 yards on a WR screen that should have been stopped for a loss. The source argues Bell can do the most damage as an underneath slot player while retaining the flexibility to play outside.
