For a while, it looked like whoever trained Le’Veon Bell for his exhibition boxing match had been playing an elaborate prank on him. Then Adrian Peterson walked straight into a hard right. The former Pittsburgh Steelers running back emerged victorious from a sparsely attended Social Gloves exhibition against his fellow NFL running back on Saturday despite an embarrassing show of form in the first four rounds.

But his brief stint playing in Andy Reid’s offense didn’t suit him.  The former All-Pro running back opened up about his feelings playing for Reid in an Instagram comment on Friday.
