Florida WR Trevon Grimes Says He’s Talked To Steelers, Models Game After Chase Claypool

Florida WR Trevon Grimes said he’s had Zoom calls several teams, including the Pittsburgh Steelers, during the pre-draft process. During his Wednesday session with the media following his Pro Day workout, he confirmed he talked with the team. He also said he models his game after big-bodied receivers like Calvin Johnson, D.K. Metcalf, and Chase Claypool.

When asked specifically about Claypool, Grimes said he admired his fluidity in route-running despite his big frame. Grimes has a similar body type, weighing in at 6’4, 220 at Florida’s Pro Day. And like Claypool, he flashed some freaky speed.
