2025 Receiving Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Coming off a career year, Bell is primed to emerge as one of the Cardinals' top pass-catchers in year two of the Jeff Brohm era. The wideout posted 43 catches for 737 yards and four touchdowns last season, but with the departure of Ja'Corey Brooks to the NFL, there's room for Bell to put up even bigger numbers in 2025. Louisville must replace another NFL-bound offensive centerpiece, quarterback Tyler Shough, but the Cardinals managed to sign one of the top gunslingers in the transfer portal in former USC quarterback Miller Moss. Though Moss fell out of favor last season as a first-time starter in Southern California, he still tossed for 2,555 yards, 18 touchdowns to nine interceptions while completing 64.4 percent of his passes. He's a capable, pro-style quarterback who should have no problem getting the 6-foot-2 Bell the football. Expect Bell and Caullin Lacy to be Louisville's top receiving duo in what should be another dangerous passing offense. Read Past Outlooks
Dealing with torn ACL
Bell tore his ACL in Louisville's loss to SMU on Nov. 22, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Bell missed Louisville's final regular season game against Kentucky, and now we know why: the wideout tore his ACL against the Mustangs. This is a tough blow for the big-time NFL Draft prospect, who is reportedly set for surgery in Dallas later this week. Bell had first-round potential in the 2026 NFL Draft, but is likely to see his stock suffer given his late-season injury. The receiver caught 72 passes for 917 yards and six scores this fall.
