Nick Chubb says Browns’ run-first identity thrives when he and Kareem Hunt break tackles

After helping lift the Cleveland Browns to their first win of the season, running back Nick Chubb told reporters on Wednesday that he prides himself on his ability to create yardage where there appears to be none. Asked about his ability to break tackles, and the predicament that defenses face in needing to get multiple players to the ball, he explained that it is part of the team’s identity for him to pick up yards the hard way.

“That is part of our offense,” Chubb explained about breaking free from defenders. “Everyone knows we are a run-first team. It is not a secret, and that is what we pride ourselves on. The O line does a great job up front. After that, it is up to me and Kareem to break tackle and get the extra dirty yards. I think that is something we both do well.”
