New Bills wide receiver Chase Claypool will wear the No. 14 jersey previously worn by Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs.
The Bills announced that Claypool will be number 14 this year. Diggs wore that number the last four years in Buffalo until he was traded to the Texans this offseason.
Claypool has never worn the number 14 before. He wore No. 11 with the Steelers, No. 10 with the Bears and No. 83 with the Dolphins.
Diggs was a popular player in Buffalo, and many fans already have the number 14 jersey. In the end, however, the Bills decided to cut ties with a talented player who often didn’t seem to be on the same page as head coach Sean McDermott.
Claypool has had his own up-and-down career. A second-round pick of the Steelers in 2020, he had an excellent rookie year with 62 receptions for 873 yards and nine touchdowns, but has never matched those numbers since. After the Bears foolishly traded a second-round pick for Claypool, he did almost nothing in Chicago, and after being traded to Miami last year, he caught just four passes in nine games.
