Le'Veon Bell apologizes for Andy Reid comments, but doesn't regret saying it

Free-agent running back Le'Veon Bell says he doesn't regret saying he wouldn't play for Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid again. 

However, he wishes he didn't publicly comment about his feelings after playing one season in Kansas City. 

Bell wrote in an Instagram comment that he would rather retire than play for Reid again.

The 29-year-old appeared in nine games for the Chiefs after being released by the New York Jets. He ran for 254 yards and two touchdowns.

It's unclear when Bell will sign with a new team. However, he said last month that he was taking his time to decide about where to play next.
