Senior Bowl Update – Chase Claypool

To the surprise of absolutely nobody who has watched him the last two seasons, Chase Claypool measured out about as well as he could possibly hope.

Senior Bowl festivities got started Tuesday morning in Mobile, Alabama as participating players checked in with their official heights, weights and measurements.

To the surprise of absolutely nobody who has watched him the last two seasons, Chase Claypool measured out about as well as he could possibly hope.

Claypool’s height of 6-4.3″ was the second-tallest of any wide receiver at the Senior Bowl while coming in at 229 pounds makes him the heaviest receiver participating this week.

He also measured out to have the second longest arms, biggest hands and the second widest wingspan of any receiver in Mobile.

Meeting the media ahead of practice, Claypool spoke about his physical nature on the field, his love for special teams and how football isn’t the only sport he’s talented at.

To further the solid start to Senior Bowl week for Claypool, one of the NFL’s proudest franchises is also looking to learn more about him.

If you watched Chase Claypool from the second half of 2018 through his final game for Notre Dame in the 2019 Camping World Bowl you saw an elite talent who offers a rare combination of size and athleticism, even if the speed isn’t elite.

I’m becoming more curious by the day if Claypool’s future in the NFL wouldn’t be best served by putting on another 10-15 pounds and becoming a tight end.

His physicality certainly would fit that role.
