Randy Fichtner sees Chase Claypool getting significant snaps early in 2020

People the size of Chase Claypool are not supposed to be that athletic.

That fast.

That agile.

Claypool stands at 6-feet 4-inches tall, and weighs 238 pounds, but he ran the 40-yard dash in a whopping 4.43 seconds.

To put it another way, Claypool is like a tight end who can run a 4.4 forty. That type of athleticism doesn’t come along every day. Throw in the fact Claypool is intelligent, team-first oriented and willing to do anything, including run block and play special teams, to help his team win and you have yourself a player.
