Chicago Bears trade ex-Steelers WR Chase Claypool to Miami Dolphins

The next chapter of the Chase Claypool saga now heads south to Miami. The former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, who was traded to the Chicago Bears last season didn’t make it a full year and has now been traded to the Miami Dolphins for a swap of 6th and 7th round NFL draft picks.

Pittsburgh dealt Claypool to the Bears in exchange for a second-round pick in the 2023 NFL daft. This is the pick the Steelers used to draft cornerback Joey Porter Jr. The problems Claypool had in Pittsburgh were not cured by a new team and Chicago saw much of the same issues, forcing the trade.

Miami is probably a nice landing spot for Claypool given how much talent is on the roster, there won’t be much asked of him in the passing offense. Miami is loaded with skill players and an emphasis on speed. There should be very little pressure on Claypool to even contribute.
