MIKE MCDANIEL EXPLAINS DOLPHINS' DECISION TO TRADE FOR DISGRUNTLED BEARS WR
CHASE CLAYPOOL


MCDANIEL IS CLEARLY INTRIGUED BY CLAYPOOL'S SPEED

USATSI

The NFL's best offense through four weeks has added a new weapon, as the Miami
Dolphins sent a 2025 sixth-round pick to the Chicago Bears for a 2025
seventh-round pick and wide receiver Chase Claypool. The Bears made the
disgruntled wideout inactive in two straight games, and now he gets the change
of scenery he was likely after.

Friday, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel explained the decision to pursue
Claypool, calling it an "exciting opportunity."

"You have to stay steadfast to the commitment of making your team as good as it
could be," McDaniel said, via Pro Football Talk. "Sometimes things come across
your radar that you weren't even looking for but, when you assess it, if it
falls under the category this has a chance to make us better then you jump on
that."

Last year, Claypool was acquired by the Bears from the Pittsburgh Steelers for
what ended up being the No. 32 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft (thanks to the
Dolphins' tampering). In 10 games played for Chicago, he caught just 18 passes
for 191 yards and one touchdown. 



There were questions about his work ethic, and a league source told CBS Sports
Lead NFL Insider Jonathan Jones that Claypool needs some hard coaching. That he
needs to be someone where there's "a thumb on him" because he will exhaust a
team's resources. Still, Claypool has an attractive skill set. 

"You guys want me to say it, don't you? He's fast," McDaniel said.



Claypool burst onto the NFL scene in 2020, with 889 scrimmage yards and 11 total
touchdowns for the Steelers in his rookie season. Miami has a talented wide
receiving corps including Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Robbie Chosen, Braxton
Berrios and Cedric Wilson Jr. Claypool, who has just one year remaining on his
current deal, will have to work to earn snaps in this offense.
