Bears trade Chase Claypool to Dolphins


by - Senior Editor -

The Chase Claypool experiment is finally over.

The Chicago Bears have traded receiver Chase Claypool to the Miami Dolphins on Friday, pending a physical.

The Bears will receive a 2025 sixth-rounder from Miami, and the Bears will give them a 2025 seventh-rounder. In addition to the pick swap, the Bears will save around $2 million of cap space.

Claypool had been a disappointment, to say the least, since the Bears traded for him (32nd overall pick) last season.

He has only three catches on 14 targets for 51 yards and a touchdown this season.

Bears general manager Ryan Poles wished Claypool luck on Thursday.

"I think Chase is going to learn from this situation, we all will, and I wish him luck moving forward throughout his career," he said.
