Browns RB Nick Chubb (knee) is officially active for today’s game vs. the Bengals. It’ll be his first live action since his September 2023 multi-ligament knee injury. NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reported this morning that Chubb is expected to get a “decent workload” – but that exactly how many carries he gets won’t be determined until the team sees how he’s feeling during the game. We’d try not to use Chubb in Week 7 fantasy lineups.
Browns RB Nick Chubb is expected to get a "decent workload" in his return today vs. the Bengals, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. The Browns have reportedly been impressed by Chubb's play since he got back on the field, but Garafolo notes that Chubb has only been taking contact for three weeks. "His workload is gonna be determined by how the game goes, how he looks," Garafolo adds. It sounds like the Browns don't even know how much work Chubb will be ready to handle in his first game in well over a year. That obviously makes him a risky fantasy bet, but managers in a bind can consider a flier on Chubb in today's plus matchup.
Browns RB Jerome Ford (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals. RB Nick Chubb (knee) is listed as questionable but is expected to play, HC Kevin Stefanski said on Friday. It’ll be Chubb’s first game since his September 2023 multi-ligament knee injury. We’ll look for reports on Cleveland’s plans for Chubb in this one, but we’d be surprised if he got anything close to a full workload. See where Chubb lands in the Week 7 RB Rankings.
Browns RB Nick Chubb's Week 7 workload is a "work in progress," HC Kevin Stefanki said Thursday. "We want to make sure that he's available for the long term," Stefanski added. It's a very reasonable take as Chubb returns from last year's multi-ligament knee injury. We'd be surprised if he handled anything close to a normal Chubb workload vs. the Bengals on Sunday. Chubb should not be in Week 7 fantasy lineups if you can help it.
Browns HC Kevin Stefanski on Monday called RB Jerome Ford "week-to-week" with his hamstring injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That likely means we should expect Ford to miss at least the Week 7 game against the Bengals. Cleveland reportedly expects to get Nick Chubb back for that one. Ford's absence would figure to leave Pierre Strong as the primary complement to Chubb in that scenario. We'll keep watching for updates on the Cleveland backfield throughout the week.
Browns RB Jerome Ford suffered a hamstring injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Eagles and is questionable to return. His absence leaves D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong in the backfield. RB Nick Chubb is expected to make his 2024 debut next week.
Update: Ford has been ruled out.
Browns RB Nick Chubb (knee) is expected to make his 2024 debut against the Bengals next week, according to insider Mary Kay Cabot. It'll be Chubb's first game since suffering a multi-ligament knee injury in September 2023. It remains to be seen how close Chubb can get to pre-injury form. He won't be a viable Week 7 fantasy play, but he does figure to steal some early-down work from RB Jerome Ford. And Chubb's role could quickly grow depending on how that knee performs. Grab him if he's still available in your fantasy league.
Browns RB Nick Chubb (knee) will be designated to return and practice this week, HC Kevin Stefanski said Monday. The team will now have three weeks to move him onto the active roster or season-ending IR. Chubb is a long shot to play vs. the Commanders this Sunday, but he's seemingly on track to make his 2024 debut in Week 6 or 7. Chubb figures to be on a snap count out of the gate and won't be a fantasy option. And we still have concerns about whether he'll ever regain pre-injury form after his multi-ligament knee injury. But we're also talking about one of the freakiest runners in NFL history. There's certainly a chance that Chubb is a fantasy asset over the second half of the season.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Browns are expected to open the practice window for RB Nick Chubb (knee) this week. Once the team makes that move, they'll have three weeks to promote him to the active roster.
The Browns re-signed RB D'Onta Foreman. He was released during final cuts earlier this week but is back after the team did some roster-managing gymnastics. Cleveland will head into the season with Foreman, Jerome Ford, and Pierre Strong in the backfield.
Browns RB D'Onta Foreman was cut from the team at the 53-man roster cutdown. This leaves the Browns with only two RBs on their 53-man roster in Jerome Ford and Pierre Strong. Foreman is a candidate to sign back with the team after additional roster moves.
Browns RB Nick Chubb is expected to open the season on the reserve/PUP list which would require him to miss the first four games of the season. Chubb tore his ACL, MCL and meniscus in September last year which required multiple surgeries. Draft Sharks currently projects Chubb to return to action in Week 8 of the regular season.
Browns RB D'Onta Foreman was back on the field for Thursday's practice, according to insider Tony Grossi. Foreman was taken to the hospital with back and neck injuries just a week ago but has evidently been cleared to return in some capacity.
Browns RB D'Onta Foreman was carted off the field after being tended to by multiple trainers during a special teams drill. He took a direct blow to the head that resulted in neck pain. He was transported via helicopter to a Medical Center in Roanoke, VA for further evaluation.
Browns RB Nick Chubb (knee) was "running what looks like full speed sprints" in Friday's training camp session, according to The Athletic's Zac Jackson. Chubb later did "agility drills, standard cutting through cones while carrying a ball," per Jackson.
Browns RB Nick Chubb didn’t take part in OTAs or minicamp. Per The Athletic’s Zac Jackson, “it remains to be seen” if Chubb will participate in training camp. The seventh-year pro is returning from surgeries to repair meniscus, ACL, and MCL damage (left knee).
