If you watched Notre Dame football the last two years you’re going to be very much not surprised when you hear the following.
Chase Claypool made a ridiculous catch Monday night for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Claypool, who was taken in the second round of April’s NFL Draft was playing in his first career NFL game and wasted no time impressing an entire nation that was watching.
Trailing 3-0 with just under five minutes to play against the New York Giants in the opening quarter, future Hall of Famer Ben Roethlisberger found the Notre Dame product to connect for about as impressive as first career professional catch as one will ever see.
