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.
I said what I said & I don’t regret at all what I said...for those who have a PERSONAL PROBLEM with me because of what I SAID, that’s fine...you have your right! just understand I ALSO have MY RIGHT for how I feel about MY PERSONAL problem with dude because of what HE SAID to me

never did I say I didn’t enjoy my time in KC, because I loved my time there, and was probably the closest locker room full of players I ever been around...I enjoyed my teammates, the city, food, the fans, just about everything in KC...

I’m not about to get all into depth on why I feel the way I do, but I have my right to feel the way I feel...the ONLY thing I would change is commenting how i really felt on social media...

I’ll admit that’s somethin I could’ve and should’ve kept to myself & I apologize about that and that only... but I don’t regret what I said, because that’s how I feel...

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.
