"It's a blessing," Bell said. "Her whole idea was to try to have the baby before the game but, you know it’s all in God’s timing. Now I have a new niece, so hopefully I get to see her when I come back to the city."
A third-round pick in the 2022 NFL draft, Bell played in three offensive and seven special team snaps in Sunday's win, not recording a catch. He has four catches for 33 yards this season.
