Claypool: 'I'll be good this year'

Chase Claypool didn't live up to expectations in his second NFL season. Not for fans. And certainly not for himself.

The Steelers' third-year wide receiver put up essentially the same numbers as he had as a rookie -- with the exception of touchdowns -- but knows the bar is set higher.

Just keeping the status quo in Year 3 of his NFL career won't suffice. Claypool knows he has to take a big step forward in 2022.

And to do that, he knows he has to do one big thing -- stay on his feet.
