Apparently it’s good to compare it with a huge box containing salty snacks and sweets.
Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill used this comparison when discussing new teammate Chase Claypool, who was traded to Miami from the Bears last week.
“He’s a big guy,” Hill told reporters. “The crazy thing is he looks like a vending machine out there when he runs. Very fast, very fluid in his routes. He will definitely be a great asset to this team, whether he’s blocking, whether he’s receiving the ball or whatever this team needs from him. I’m very happy to have him here. I feel like in the group we have, everyone is competitive and wants to get better every day. This will help him get better. It’s about challenging each other. At the same time, I say to these young people: ‘You all make my job easier.’ I’m happy to have him.”
Hill believes the offense helps a new player come in and find a niche.
“Yeah, sure,” Hill said. “We definitely have the team for that. Obviously everyone is fighting for reps, but at the same time the mentality is all about winning, the mentality is all about the team. I think that’s what Coach does [McDaniel] had aimed for. I feel like Chase Claypool gets a bad rap because he’s probably not a teammate, but from what I’ve seen he’s been a pretty darn good teammate so far. He even offered to wash my car, how about that?”
There has been some speculation that Claypool could start at tight end. Wherever he is, his presence — if he plays like he did early in his career — could add another boost to an already overpowering offense.
