Steelers WR Chase Claypool Not Yet Ruled Out For Saturday’s Preseason Game

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool suffered an ankle injury during the team’s Tuesday training camp practice at Heinz Field and while that ailment is deemed to be not too serious in nature, the 2020 second round draft pick out of Notre Dame has still yet to return to practice as of Thursday afternoon. Will Claypool be healthy enough to play Saturday night in the Steelers third preseason game? Judging by what Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Thursday during his morning press conference, it sounds like there’s a chance he might.

“Just like the others, we’ll have an inclusive mentality, Tomlin said Thursday when asked if Claypool might play Saturday night at Heinz Field against the Detroit Lions.
