But I\u2019d like to get it done sooner than later.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Over the last several years, Chubb emerged as one of the NFL\u2019s very best running backs, and from 2019, his second pro season, to 2022, he was named to the Pro Bowl four straight times.<\/p>\n<p>But early in 2023, he suffered a severe knee injury, and he didn\u2019t return until midway this season.<\/p>\n<p>He never managed to return to his old level of production following his return, and it is an open question of whether he will ever be a star-level player again.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, his last full season, he ran for 1,525 yards and 12 touchdowns while adding 27 catches for 239 yards and one touchdown, but in eight games this year, he was only able to muster 332 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns while averaging 3.3 yards per rushing attempt.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 The Cleveland Browns could look a little different, roster-wise, by the time the 2025 NFL season begins, and they have already made some meaningful<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13223,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cleveland-browns"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
