Overview

  • Chubb inked a one-year deal worth $2.5 million guaranteed with incentives up to $5 million.
  • He said he’s “over the hump” two years after tearing his ACL and MCL and feels back to his old self following a broken foot.
  • Chubb will team with Pro Bowl back Joe Mixon under coach DeMeco Ryans in Houston’s revamped offense.
  • Defensive end Myles Garrett lobbied the Browns front office to retain Chubb and called his absence “an emotional blow” in the locker room.
  • Cleveland opted to draft Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson instead of re-signing Chubb, reshaping its running back room.
