The young wide receiver, acquired last season for what turned out to be the No. 32 overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, was a healthy scratch in last week’s game against the Denver Broncos and was again ruled inactive for the Bears’ “Thursday Night Football” game against the Washington Commanders this week.

Claypool is a pending free agent after this season and his value is at an all-time low.
