Claypool had a really disappointing season. He was shipped to the Bears to help their passing game, but got very little work with his new team. He ended the season with 46 receptions for 451 yards and a touchdown. He had just three games with double-digit fantasy points all season. Claypool will get the offseason to work in the offense and get a better rapport with Justin Fields. He could be the third option at receiver behind D.J. Moore and Darnell Mooney, though. Claypool has two seasons with 850-plus yards but has never topped 900 yards in a season. Claypool is a very tall receiver that has good quickness for a man of his size. He does lack a little top speed but runs solid routes and can be an asset in the red zone because of his size. He also does a good job of making the acrobatic catch. He will drop some passes, having 15 drops in three seasons. Consistency and maturity have been an issue for him to start his career.
FANTASY OUTLOOK: Claypool took a step backwards last year. He could improve but don't expect a huge jump in a more run-heavy offense he is like the third or fourth option in the passing game. Consider him depth material for fantasy teams. Claypool can get around 60 receptions for 800 yards and five scores.

The Buffalo Bills signed former Chicago Bears and Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday. Even with the departures of Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis this offseason, Claypool could face an uphill battle to crack the top three in Buffalo after the addition of rookie Keon Coleman with the first pick of the second round of this year's draft. The 25-year-old former second-rounder by the Steelers in 2020 out of Notre Dame had a career-low eight receptions on 21 targets for 77 yards and one touchdown in 12 games (two starts) with the Bears and Miami Dolphins in 2023. Claypool could connect on some deep plays down the field with quarterback Josh Allen in 2024, but unless injuries open up a starting spot for Claypool, he's a long shot for consistent fantasy production.

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe (ankle) and wide receiver Chase Claypool (knee) were both listed as limited participants at Thursday's practice. Both players were also limited at practice on Wednesday. Smythe and Claypool should be available to play this weekend against the Washington Commanders, but they are not on the fantasy radar. Smythe has only 18 receptions for 178 yards and no touchdowns in 10 games with the Dolphins this year. Claypool, meanwhile, has only played in three games with Miami since being acquired in a trade with the Chicago Bears. In those three games, he has one catch on two targets for a 15-yard gain.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Chase Claypool (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday ahead of his team's Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Claypool has not taken the field since Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs but he could be heading in the right direction as Week 13 approaches. Stay tuned to his participation in practices on Thursday and Friday.

Miami Dolphins wide receivers Chase Claypool (knee) and Robbie Chosen are inactive for the Week 12 contest against the division-rival New York Jets on Friday. Chose, who was re-signed this week after temporarily being cut, is a healthy scratch. Claypool has played in only three games since the Dolphins acquired him in a trade with the Chicago Bears. He's been a non-factor, catching one pass on two targets for a 15-yard gain. Both Claypool and Chosen aren't anywhere near the fantasy radar and probably won't be for the rest of the year as receiving depth for Miami.

Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe (ankle) and wide receiver Chase Claypool (knee) are active for Friday's game against the New York Jets. Both players were limited participants in practice on Thursday. Smythe, who hasn't played since Week 9, has 17 catches for 168 yards in 2023 but continues to search for his first touchdown of the season. Meanwhile, Claypool has just once catch since being traded from Chicago to Miami. Neither pass-catcher belongs on the fantasy radar in Week 12.
