NY Daily News' Manish Mehta reports the Jets are looking to trade Le'Veon Bell before Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline.

Shipping Bell out of town following a half-season of service would leave behind $13.19 million in dead cap hits over the next two years. Signed to an outrageous four-year, $52.5 million deal with $27 million guaranteed this offseason, Bell's contract was arguably the biggest disagreement between Gase and now-fired GM Mike Maccagnan; Maccagnan was the one making the calls on the Bell signing and the outrageous contract handed out to off-ball ILB C.J. Mosley. Despite wanting no part of it, it's extremely unlikely Gang Green's able to find an organization willing to take on the 27-year-old's contract, which is fully guaranteed through 2020. Mehta cited the Texans, Chiefs and Bills as likely suitors.

Cap numbers and right/wrong move aside, can you imagine the reaction around here if the Chiefs made a play for Bell?
