Nick Chubb enters the same echelon as Jim Brown during win vs. Buccaneers

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.
