Perhaps something like this, don’t know how accurate you need it, just 1 deform bone and a control bone and a simple shape key with a driver to squish it in and out a bit rather than just going down straight, you could fiddle about with it to make it look better but could be a start. I’m sure there are other ways to do it as well. You’ll need to reload it trusted because of the tiny bit of python in the driver.

Maybe a Lattice deformer can do here, adding shape keys and animating.

Maybe you’ve figured this out already, but…
You’ll want to search with the keywords “blender shape key drivers”
possibly add “tutorial” as well.
