Yes, passes are thrown his way, but they usually bounce of his chest, helmet or shoulder pads into the hands of opposing defenders. It's really hard to argue that he was trying to catch those passes. Then on rare occasion he may catch a ball, but when opposing teams point it out to the refs, their typical response is "Come on man, Michael Clayton?!! Catching a ball?!! Are you crazy?!!" Finally, at the end of such plays, they put the ball down at the line of scrimmage which is just about where Clayton's forward progression was, so it appears that they ignored this important rule when in fact they simply didn't believe he made a catch.
