Goes to Raiders' practice squad
Las Vegas signed Bell to its practice squad Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Bell was waived by the Saints on Saturday after missing the cut for their 53-man roster, but now he's getting a shot to make an impression with a new team. The Raiders have arguably the most unproven group of wide receivers in the league to start 2026, so if Bell is elevated to the active roster at any point, he could be a candidate to draw targets right away.
