After breaking the 1,000-yard mark on the ground again, running back Nick Chubb has become just the second running back for the Cleveland Browns to eclipse that number four seasons in a row. The only other running back to do so? The legendary Jim Brown, of course.
After back-to-back down weeks, Chubb now sits third in the NFL in rushing as he trails Josh Jacobs of the Las Vegas Raiders by just 120 yards. As Jacoby Brissett exits as the starting quarterback and a more mobile threat enters, running lanes and boxes should get lighter for Chubb the rest of the way out.
And to think, Chubb reached 1,000 yards as a rookie as well before losing yards to end the game to sink him back below that mark.
Congratulations to Nick Chubb for being the 1st #Browns RB to rush for 1,000yds in 4 consecutive years since the GOAT Jim Brown
