Fewest yards per touch

It didn’t matter if the Jets handed the ball off to Bell or threw it to him; Bell couldn’t turn his touches into big gains. He had a long of only 19 yards on the season and averaged 4.0 yards per touch with the Jets – his lowest average ever – and he averaged at least five yards per touch during his time in Pittsburgh.

Bell was even less effective on the ground, averaging only 3.2 yards per attempt – also a career-low. That put him second-to-last among qualified running backs, ahead of only Peyton Barber of the Buccanneers, who averaged 3.1 yards per carry.

Before he joined the Jets, Bell’s career-low was 3.5 yards per carry during his rookie season, and he averaged at least 4.0 yards per attempt every year after 2013. This might be Bell’s biggest blunder in the 2019 season, especially since his style is so conducive to big runs.
