Another member of the Pittsburgh Steelers 2020 NFL draft class is under contract. Wide receiver Chase Claypool shared the pictures above of him signing his rookie contract on Wednesday.
The Steelers drafted Claypool in the second round of the 2020 NFL draft. Claypool’s combination of size and speed are just what the Pittsburgh offense needs. Claypool played his college football at Notre Dame where he hauled in 150 passes in four years.
As a senior, Claypool had 66 receptions for 1,037 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns. Claypool should compete with James Washington for reps behind starters Diontae Johnson and JuJu Smith-Schuster.
The Steelers still have multiple rookies to sign. Running back Anthony McFarland Jr. shares pics of him signing his contract on Tuesday and edge rusher Alex Highsmith has agreed to terms.
