On April 30, 2022, Bell signed with the Cleveland Browns as an undrafted free agent, following the 2022 NFL draft. [2] He made the Browns' 53-man final roster out of training camp and became the first player from West Florida to make it to the NFL. [3]
In Week 15 of the 2023 season against the Chicago Bears, Bell intercepted Justin Fields' Hail Mary pass in the end zone to secure a 20–17 win for the Browns. [4] The ball got tipped multiple times in the end zone, ending in wide receiver Darnell Mooney's hands as he was falling to the ground; however, Mooney was unable to secure the pass and kicked it straight into Bell's hands. In the following game against the Houston Texans, Bell stepped in to perform a kickoff due to kickers Dustin Hopkins and Corey Bojorquez becoming injured during the game. As the kicker on the play, Bell tackled the returner. [5] [6] On January 13, 2024, he played in the 14–45 Wild Card loss to the Texans, where he caught all 8 passes directed to him for 54 yards.
In the 2024 season, he appeared in 17 games with 1 start. [7]
On March 24, 2025, Bell signed a one-year contract with the Seattle Seahawks. [8] On August 28, he was waived from the initial 53-man roster by the Seahawks (for linebacker Chazz Surratt) and re-signed to the practice squad on September 1. [9] [10]
