Le'Veon Bell signed his $52.5 million deal with the Jets nearly two and half months ago. On Monday, he finally gave the public a glimpse of what he'll look like wearing Gotham Green.
Posting to his personal Twitter account with the caption, "We here baby!! Y'all see it! Time to Take Flight!," Bell offered a short video of himself wearing New York's new home uniform for 2019.

This Twitter video from Bell came almost exactly two months after the Jetsdebuted their brand-new uniforms with a slightly altered shade of green along with new green helmets and a new logo. Other New York players, such as Sam Darnold, Quincy Enunwa, Jamal Adams and Leonard Williams, showcased the new uniforms at a team-hosted event in early April, but Bell was not part of those festivities.
New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold, wide receiver Robby Anderson, linebacker Avery Williamson and tight end Chris Herndon join "Good Morning Football" to unveil the new Jets uniforms.
Now that Bell has donned New York's in-game uniform for the first time, the next step will be for the running back to wear a Jets practice uniform.
The team begins its mandatory minicamp on June 4. Bell has yet to attend any OTAs or team-hosted workouts, opting instead to participate in his own personal training program in Florida over the past several weeks.
