Project Synopsis

Working 2nd camera for E:60, Andrew Didway of Istoria was granted unprecedented access with Le’Veon Bell as he spent the day in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio. After Bell was arrested in August, 2014, many predicted his NFL season would be a bust. He had disappointed Steelers fans, his teammates and received the most stinging reaction from his mother – also a life long Steelers fan who had sacrificed so much for Le’Veon. At the lowest moment of his life, his mother was there, showing him tough love. Determined to once again make her proud, Le’Veon would have a breakthrough year. Bell shares his story with E:60 including details of the day that threatened to derail his family’s NFL dream and one of the best seasons in Steelers history.
