From the article

Claiborne did not have an outstanding training camp or preseason, but he did show flashes of his upside as a quick and agile back capable of breaking explosive runs whenever he touches the ball. Claiborne did show he could pass protect reasonably well- and actually graded better than Scott in that regard in preseason according to PFF.

Claiborne's pass-protection grades and explosive-run upside secured his roster spot.

Claiborne made the 53-man roster over Zavier Scott despite a middling training camp and preseason; the source credits his flashes of upside as a quick, agile back capable of explosive runs. Claiborne also graded better than Scott in pass protection according to PFF in preseason, a key factor in his roster retention.
