Chase Claypool Works Out for Colts

Thursday, July 30, 5:53 PM

The Indianapolis Colts worked out free-agent wide receiver Chase Claypool on Thursday. Claypool is attempting an NFL comeback after not playing in the league since 2023. He last suited up for the Miami Dolphins during the 2023 campaign. He finished with eight receptions for 77 yards and one touchdown in 12 games with Miami. The 28-year-old was a former second-round pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2020. He hasn't really done anything meaningful on the football field since leaving the Steelers during the 2022 season. Even if he lands with the Colts, Claypool would likely only be depth and have a minimal role.

Garrett Wilson "Looks Like Himself Again" with Improved QB Play in New York

Saturday, August 22, 7:26 AM

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson's connection with new Jets quarterback Geno Smith has been building, and the star wideout "looks like himself again," per Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Wilson was limited by a knee injury to just seven games played in 2025. However, the 26-year-old played in 17 games in each of his first three seasons in the NFL, recording at least 83 catches and 1,042 receiving yards in each of those campaigns. Wilson has had the misfortune of working with some of the league's worst quarterback play throughout his Jets career to this point. While Smith is coming off a down year with the Las Vegas Raiders, the veteran signal-caller should at least bring a level of stability to New York's passing game. As long as Wilson stays healthy, he should dominate target share in the Jets' offense. Entering 2026, Wilson profiles as a steady fantasy WR2.
