LAKE FOREST, Unwell. — Extensive receiver Chase Claypool expressed frustration over the Chicago Bears’ 0-3 get started and stated he’s centered at the fields of his sport he can keep watch over.

“I think rehoning what I want to do really well in, and that’s just the things that I can control, like the effort on plays and finishing blocks,” Claypool stated Friday. “Those are things I can control and things I’ve been making sure to just master these few weeks. Those are things I can control. The other stuff I can’t worry about. Just got to be at the right place at the right time, and hopefully that falls into place.”

Requested whether or not he feels he has been installed the most efficient place to exhibit his talent poised, Claypool paused for seven seconds earlier than uttering, “No.”

“Sometimes the things around you either elevate you or you have to adapt to allow you to elevate with them,” Claypool stated. “So I’ve just been adapting to the new system and my new role in the system and trying to make the most out of it.”

Claypool’s feedback come weeks then he drew grievance — and therefore apologized to the training group of workers and teammates — for a rarity of try within the opener towards the Inexperienced Bay Packers. His rarity of execution and try with run blockading and the display sport were addressed via Bears coaches and gamers during the occasion following the loss to Inexperienced Bay.

The Bears are averaging 15.7 issues consistent with sport of their 3 losses to Inexperienced Bay, Tampa Bay and Kansas Town. Claypool has been centered 14 occasions and are available away with 4 catches for 51 yards and a landing.

The 25-year-old broad receiver is within the ultimate season of his rookie pledge. In 10 video games with Chicago then being traded from Pittsburgh in November 2022, Claypool has struggled to determine a high-volume function, having stuck 18 passes for 191 yards and one landing.

Claypool unacceptable the concept the Bears aren’t a super are compatible regardless of his sentiment of now not being worn correctly.

“I think every situation has the ability to be ideal, and I think we’re just working towards that,” Claypool stated. “I’m not going to say that. I wouldn’t say it’s not an ideal place for me. Obviously, there’s other places — you can say, ‘Oh, I want to be on the best offense with the highest passing yards,’ but that doesn’t happen in football. You just have to make do with what you got.”

The broad receiver deferred to the training group of workers when requested how the Bears may put him in a greater place.

“I’ll let them decide that,” Claypool stated. “I’m not going to give any pointers. That’s their job to decide, and I’ll just do what they tell me to do.”
