Recovering from toe injury
Claypool, who was released by the Bills last August with an injury settlement, recently revealed in an Instagram post that he's bouncing back from tearing a ligament and tendon in his second toe, Ryan Talbot of Syracuse.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After signing with Buffalo last May, Claypool was making a push to secure a role in the team's wideout corps ahead of the 2024 season, but a toe injury that the 26-year-old suffered last summer ended up sidelining him for the entire campaign. Since then, Claypool has been rehabbing and recovering with an eye toward moving past the issue and resuming his NFL career. The 2020 second-rounder last saw regular-season action in 2023, when he caught eight passes (on 21 targets) in 12 games (three with the Bears and nine with the Dolphins) for 77 yards and a TD.

Claypool, who turns 26 in July, burst on the scene as a rookie second-rounder with the Steelers in 2020 with 62 receptions for 873 yards and 11 total touchdowns. He scored only twice in his second year, but his other numbers were comparable. The Notre Dame product then was shipped to Chicago in a mid-season trade in 2022 and never really got things going in two partial seasons there. On the heels of an eight-catch effort (in three games with the Bears and nine with the Dolphins) last season, Claypool gets a fresh opportunity with a great quarterback in Buffalo in a wideout corps in transition. Last year's top two options at the position are gone, leaving Khalil Shakir as the top holdover.
