Demetress Bell is a former offensive lineman who played for the Buffalo Bills and Philadelphia Eagles during his five-year NFL career.

Bell has an estimated net worth of $5 million. He earned that money through his NFL contract, sponsorships, endorsements, and well-thought-out investments.

Bell earned $351,600 in his first season, $348,529 in his second, $470,000 in his third, $1,300,000 in his fourth, and $3,250,000 in his final year in the NFL.

It's worth noting that the Eagles absorbed Bell's contract for the final year, and they did the paying. He earned $2,470,129 with the Bills and $3,250,000 with the Eagles. Not bad for a seventh-round draft pick.

Bell has remained out of the spotlight since his retirement from the uber-competitive NFL. Bell was signed by the Dallas Cowboys in 2013 but was released before he could play for America's Team. He has been out of the league ever since.

Bell was selected in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL draft as the 219th overall pick by the Bills. He played college football for Northwestern State University and was a standout offensive lineman.

He earned second-team All-Louisiana honors in his second season with Northwestern State University and All-Louisiana and an All-Southland Conference first-team nod in his final season.


Is Demetress Bell related to an NBA Hall of Famer?

Bell is related to NBA legend and Hall of Famer Karl Malone, who is one of the greatest scorers in NBA history. Malone was a 20-year-old student at Louisiana Tech when he fathered a child with 13-year-old Gloria Bell.

Due to the nature of his arrival into the world, there has always been a spotlight on Bell. While Bell and Malone's relationship hasn't always been great, the former Bills offensive linesman will be glad that he inherited his father's athleticism.
