Claypool caught nine of 15 targets for 96 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Bengals.
Claypool ranked second behind running back Najee Harris (14 catches for 102 yards on 20 targets) in catches, receiving yards and targets, but both saw significant volume as Ben Roethlisberger threw 58 times with the Steelers trailing throughout. Diontae Johnson (knee) was inactive for this one and JuJu Smith-Schuster (ribs) exited early, leaving Claypool as the top option among Pittsburgh's wide receivers. Claypool will continue to play a prominent role in Pittsburgh's passing attack against the Packers in Week 4, especially if neither Johnson nor Smith-Schuster is ready to return.
