Steelers All-Pro running back Le'Veon Bell is reportedly facing a four-game suspension after blowing off a drug test. The news was first reported by ESPN's Dan Graziano on Friday morning but is yet to be made official, due to an appeal by Bell:

Bell missed the first two games of last season for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy after he got arrested for a DUI and marijuana possession in 2014. At the time, Bell said he was unaware you could get a DUI after smoking weed:

Bell tweeted this out back on April 20 and seemed to make a joke after he was asked to take a drug test on that day:

Bell's appeal date is yet to be determined, but it is expected to take place before the start of the 2016-17 NFL season. Twitter is taking the news hard because, well, fantasy:

The Steelers' first four opponents of the 2016-17 NFL season are the Redskins, Bengals, Eagles, and Chiefs.
