Chase Claypool: Quiet in playoff loss

Claypool had three receptions (seven targets) for 25 yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to Kansas City.

Analysis: JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) returned from injured reserve and cut into the target share of both of Pittsburgh's starting wideouts. Claypool played poorly with the opportunities presented to him, but Ben Roethlisberger's inaccuracy did not help any of his receiving options in his final game before retirement. That was also the story of Claypool's sophomore campaign, as he finished with 59 receptions for 860 yards and two touchdowns across 15 contests, but that came on a mediocre 56 percent catch rate. Perhaps the large-framed wideout can rediscover his rookie magic with a new quarterback under center in 2022.
