Fields had a field day throwing deep to future NFL receivers at Ohio State, and he's hoping to duplicate that succe s in Chicago with Claypool."He's a playmaker, a big body, Lamarcus Joyner Jersey athletic, fast," Fields said this week, . "A great 50/50 ball catcher. I was excited of course." CHI WR #10 TAR50REC32REC YDs311REC TD1FL0 Claypool is also excited to be in Chicago. He said that he feels that he wasn't given a full opportunity to display his talents during this season's first eight games as he was asked to play more in the slot. Claypool did significantly more damage during his first two seasons in Pittsburgh, when he caught 121 pa ses for 1,733 yards and 11 touchdowns.
