Bears receiver Chase Claypool looks on before the Bears’ first preseason game.

INDIANAPOLIS — Ten days after pulling his hamstring — and yapping at Bears cornerbacks — during one-on-one drills in training camp, Bears receiver Chase Claypool looked sharp while running routes at what appeared to be full speed about an hour-and-a-half before Saturday’s kickoff against the Colts. Claypool hasn’t practiced since the injury.

Other receivers tried to take advantage of game action. Dante Pettis returned kicks with both Jones and Scott out, while fellow receiver Equanimeous St. Brown served as the Bears’ only captain.
