LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Chase Claypool doesn't need help finding motivation ahead of the 2023 season. Looking to rebound from his worst year as a pro while playing for a second contract provides plenty of drive for the Chicago Bears wide receiver.

"It's the biggest year of my life, and I understand that," Claypool said. "If anybody thinks my work ethic isn't matching that, they're deeply mistaken."

The Bears sent a second-round pick to Pittsburgh in November to acquire Claypool at the trade deadline in an effort to help quarterback Justin Fields' development.
