We’ve been here before with Chase Claypool. At least I have. A little over two years ago, I declared the upcoming year to be the season of Claypool. He appeared to possess the skill set to break through opposite of Equanimeous St. Brown at receiver, and the few plays we saw him make as a freshman portended a break out year for the rising sophomore.
That of course, didn’t happen. He saw an increased role on the team, hauling in 29 passes for 402 yards and scoring two touchdowns. Good numbers, but nothing earth shattering.
