A league source told NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora that Bell was set to visit the Eagles on Saturday.

He visited with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Friday, according to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. Bell's visit was the Steelers' first with a free agent this offseason.

Bell, who played for the Buffalo Bills for the past three seasons, isn't the only tackle the Eagles have been linked to. Left tackle Marcus McNeill's agent, Alvin Keels, told ProFootballTalk.com that the Eagles had reached out to his client, though he said it's too early in the process to gauge the seriousness of the Eagles' interest. McNeill made the Pro Bowl in 2006 and 2007 with the San Diego Chargers.
