Chase Claypoolās situation with the Chicago Bears became unsustainable, and one didnāt have to be a football savant ro realize that. Not many NFL players last long on their teams after bashing their coaches.
Thatās especially true for players who were on a short leash already. Claypool has failed to live up to his potential in the league, and while he couldāve been right in his criticism of his team, he hasnāt earned his stripes yet.
Notably, heāll now get an opportunity to finally take a leap forward and become a star, as heāll join Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphinsā explosive and entertaining offense.
Bears Trade Claypool To Dolphins
āThe Bears are trading WR Chase Claypool to the Dolphins, sources tell me and
Tom Pelissero,ā reported Ian Rapoport. āThis ends a prolonged drama and gives Claypool a fresh start. They have tried to trade him since last week after he was a healthy scratch. Now, everyone moves on.ā
The Dolphins now have a starting WR corps consisting of Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Chase Claypool. From a physical and speed standpoint, it doesnāt get any better than that.

Still, this might as well be Claypoolās final chance to establish himself in the league. He needs to turn the narrative around him once and for all, or he could be out of the NFL quite soon.
