While the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Chase Claypool raised some eyebrows about his self-proclaimed status as a top-three NFL wideout, he has also offered praise for the team’s rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett.
On the I Am Athlete podcast, Claypool said, “[Pickett] looks good. He’s mobile. He’s faster than people think, so that’s going to be new for us. And I think it’s going to create plays. You see so many of Ja’Marr’s [Chase] plays and Tee’s [Higgins] plays are from Joe [Burrow] leaving the pocket and making plays happen. And you know, we’re young, we’re versatile, we’re dynamic, so he’s going to add to that.
