Nick Chubb

Nick Chubb reworked his contract to remain with the team in 2024. The four-time pro-bowler missed the majority of the 2023-2024 season after suffering a major knee injury in Week 2.

Fantasy Impact

It will be challenging to assess Nick Chubb's fantasy outlook until we are able to see him on an NFL field again. Many are wondering whether he will return with the same athleticism and elusiveness that made him an elite fantasy option over the years. Chubb has a long injury history and his NFL future is somewhat in question heading into this offseason. Jerome Ford emerged as a reliable asset for many managers' teams last season. He will be a name to monitor if Chubb's recovery takes longer than initially expected.

Cleveland Browns RB Nick Chubb will need a second surgery to repair his ACL, reports ESPN’s Adam Schefter, after doctors found an ACL tear while addressing his MCL tear. He is expected to return during the 2024 season.

Fantasy Impact

A couple key pieces of information can be gathered from this report. For starters, Chubb did in fact suffer a multi-ligament tear, which tend to be much harder to come back from than singular tears. As well, this pushes his timetable back just a bit further, making it more likely that Chubb will not be ready in time for the 2024 season, which will make his ADP next season tricky to navigate. Until then, Jerome Ford is in charge of the Browns’ backfield.

Nick Chubb is believed to have suffered a torn MCL against Pittsburgh on Monday night. His return time is estimated time 6-8 months.

Fantasy Impact

Given the gruesomeness of how it looked in replays, it’s a blessing his knee wasn’t injured further. While it doesn’t help Chubb owners for 2023, he should be back in time for the 2024 season barring any setbacks.

Nick Chubb will require surgery on his knee and will be out for the remainder of the season.

Fantasy Impact

Chubb went down with a gruesome knee injury during Monday night's loss to the Steelers, and after further testing, it has been determined that he will need to get surgery to repair it. He will be knocked out for the remainder of the season, which is obviously a devastating blow for him, the Browns, and fantasy managers. The team will have to look to players like Jerome Ford and Pierre Strong Jr. to step up and play a bigger role in the star RB's extended absence for the rest of the season.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters he expects RB Nick Chubb to be out for the season with a significant knee injury.

Fantasy Impact

This has been the expectation, but it is now confirmed by Stefanski. The question now will become how serious of an injury it was that Chubb suffered. We will likely find out more information on Monday.
