Claypool recorded three receptions on nine targets for 70 yards in Sunday's Week 2 loss to the Raiders.
Claypool was consistently targeted deep by Ben Roethlisberger, but the pair largely failed to connect. The one notable play between them came early in the fourth quarter, when Claypool hauled in a 52-yard pass to key a drive that ended in a touchdown. While much of Pittsburgh's offense is based around short and quick passes, Claypool stands out as the primary big-play threat. That could lead to plenty of explosive performances but may also result in frequent inefficiency as well.
