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 News

Will Garrett Wilson's Pure Talent Finally Equate to Fantasy Success?

Saturday, August 29, 11:29 AM

New York Jets wideout Garrett Wilson is entering the 2026 season with a clean bill of health after missing the majority of last season with a knee injury. The 26-year-old was the WR7 overall and averaged 16.6 PPR points per game before being shut down for the season. Heading into this season, it isn't a far stretch to say Wilson will be playing with the best quarterback of his career in Geno Smith. Wilson has played with eight different shaky quarterbacks but still has found ways to produce elite statistical numbers. Wilson is only the fifth player in NFL history to record at least 80 receptions and 1,000 receiving yards in each of his first three seasons. In addition, he is the first Jet in franchise history to start a career with three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. Wilson is currently being drafted as a value as the WR21 on Yahoo. It is within his range of outcomes to finish as a top 10 receiver in fantasy football this season.
