<p>The <strong>Cleveland Browns</strong>, led by <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/deshaun-watson">Deshaun Watson</a></strong>, continue their journey in the <strong>NFL</strong> with the primary goal of turning things around and improving their negative record of 1-3. Fortunately for him and his coach, they have recovered a key weapon this week as they look ahead.</p>



<p><strong>The player in question is none other than star RB <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nick-chubb">Nick Chubb</a></strong>, who has been designated to return to practice with the Browns this week. One of the key players in Kevin Stefanski’s lineup was placed on injured reserve at the end of August due to a serious knee injury.</p>



<p>In this way, the team led by Deshaun Watson is regaining a strong player for their offense ahead of the upcoming Week 5 NFL matchup. <strong>On Sunday, the Washington Commanders will be the opponents for Cleveland</strong>, who will be looking to secure their second win of the season.</p>



<p>The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns">Browns</a> started this season with the primary goal of improving on their performance from last year. In their debut, they suffered a decisive loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Week 2 marked their first and only victory so far in the competition against the Jaguars, but in the following two weeks, they fell to both the New York Giants and the Las Vegas Raiders.</p>

<p>The <strong>2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season was a nightmare for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nick-chubb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nick Chubb</a></strong>. The running back suffered a <strong>severe knee injury</strong> last year, casting doubt on his future. Now, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a></strong> have made their <strong>final decision regarding the talented player</strong>.</p>



<p>Nick Chubb has arguably been the <strong>best player for the Browns in recent years</strong>. The former Georgia player was <strong>drafted </strong>into the league in <strong>2018 </strong>as the <strong>35th overall pick</strong> and has consistently <strong>exceeded all expectations placed</strong> on him since then.</p>



<p>Unfortunately, <strong>2023 </strong>was likely the <strong>worst year for him</strong>. In Week 2, <strong>Chubb suffered a gruesome knee injury</strong> from a hit by <strong>Minkah Fitzpatrick</strong> of the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a></strong>, putting his <strong>entire career in jeopardy</strong>.</p>



<h2>Report: Browns have decided to rework Nick Chubb’s contract</h2>



<p><strong>Nick Chubb’s talent is undeniable. </strong>Since joining the Browns in 2018, he has proven himself as a <strong>standout player</strong>. However, a <strong>severe knee injury has endangered his whole career</strong>.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230921#BUS#66415"></div>


<p>Chubb was sidelined last year as he <strong>underwent multiple surgeries to address his knee injury</strong>. While reports indicated he would be <strong>ready for the upcoming season</strong>, uncertainty loomed over <strong>whether he could fully regain his peak performance</strong>.</p>



<p>Amidst these uncertainties, <strong>rumors circulated</strong> that the <strong>Browns</strong> were <strong>considering</strong> <strong>parting ways with Nick Chubb</strong>. Nevertheless, it appears they are <strong>willing to give him another opportunity</strong> despite his challenging recovery from injury.</p>



<p>According to NFL Media, the Cleveland Browns have agreed with Nick Chubb to rework his contract for 2024. The <strong>running back is lowering his base salary to $11.775 million</strong>, but he <strong>could earn it back through incentives</strong>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240411_BUS_118289_Nick-Chubb-1-1024x576_bc1f79e7.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Nick Chubb, running back of the Cleveland Browns" class="wp-image-64912" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Nick Chubb, running back of the Cleveland Browns</figcaption></figure>



<p>With this decision, <strong>Chubb secures a roster spot</strong> for the upcoming campaign. However, <strong>coming off his knee injury</strong>, there’s <strong>uncertainty regarding how he will perform</strong> and whether he’ll be able to regain his previous level.</p>



<h2>When does Nick Chubb’s contract expire?</h2>



<p>The <strong>outlook doesn’t appear promising for Nick Chubb</strong>. Despite renegotiating his contract and securing a spot with the Browns for the upcoming season, <strong>2025 will present huge challenges</strong> for him.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230921#BUS#65854"></div>


<p>Nick Chubb is poised to <strong>become an unrestricted free agent</strong> at the <strong>conclusion</strong> of the <strong>2024 season</strong>. It will be <strong>crucial</strong> for him to <strong>demonstrate</strong> that he’s <strong>fully recovered from his injury</strong> and remains an <strong>elite player</strong>, whether to <strong>secure a new contract</strong> with the Browns or <strong>explore opportunities</strong> with other teams.</p>

NFL News: Browns make final decision regarding Nick Chubb's future

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a></strong> suffered a lot during the <strong>2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season</strong>. During the first games, they lost <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nick-chubb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nick Chubb</a></strong> to a very <strong>serious knee injury</strong>, and now the running back is on the <strong>verge of leaving the AFC North team</strong>.</p>



<p>Last year, Nick Chubb missed the final 16 games of the season due to a severe knee injury. The <strong>running back underwent multiple surgeries</strong> to address the issue, and he is still in the process of recovery.</p>



<p>There’s no doubt that Chubb has been the Browns’ best offensive player in recent years. However, his <strong>injury may have raised concerns</strong>, and his <strong>departure</strong> from <strong>Cleveland</strong> now seems <strong>imminent</strong>.</p>



<h2>Report: Browns might part ways with Nick Chubb this offseason</h2>



<p>Nick Chubb has been a standout player for the Browns since joining the team in 2018. He has consistently met expectations, but his <strong>2023 season may have altered his relationship</strong> with the organization.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230921#BUS#66415"></div>


<p>During the Browns’ second game of the season against the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a></strong>, Chubb sustained a serious <strong>knee injury</strong> that prematurely ended his campaign. The running back <strong>underwent multiple surgeries</strong> due to the <strong>complexity of the problem</strong>.</p>



<p>Unfortunately, that game might have been Chubb’s last one wearing the Browns’ jersey. The Athletic and NFL Media reported that there’s a <strong>strong feeling around the league that Cleveland wants to trade the running back</strong> this offseason.</p>



<p>This move has shocked everyone. It seems like the team is afraid that Chubb won’t be able to return to his full potential after the injury, and the front office wants to <strong>get top picks in exchange for the running back</strong> while they still can.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240222_BUS_106817_Nick-Chubb-1-1024x576_60ea1e04.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Nick Chubb, running back of the Cleveland Browns" class="wp-image-64912" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Nick-Chubb-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Nick Chubb, running back of the Cleveland Browns</figcaption></figure>



<p>While healthy, Nick Chubb is arguably the best running back in the NFL today. Over six seasons, he has <strong>amassed 6,511 yards on 1,238 attempts and scored 48 touchdowns</strong>. However, it remains uncertain how he will fare after his challenging knee injury.</p>



<h2>What would happen if Nick Chubb leaves the Browns?</h2>



<p>If these rumors prove true, the Cleveland Browns would likely turn to <strong>Jerome Ford</strong> as Nick Chubb’s replacement. Last year, when he <strong>assumed the RB1 role</strong>, he racked up <strong>813 yards and four touchdowns</strong>, solidifying the notion of this series of moves.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231202#BUS#89289"></div>


<p>As for the player, there will definitely be several teams interested in hiring him. As of today, it seems like the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cowboys</a></strong> are the best landing spot for him, as <strong>Tony Pollard enters the free agency</strong> and they need a solid running back to bolster the team’s offense.</p>

<p>During the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a> vs. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a></strong> match, <strong>Minkah Fitzpatrick</strong> was involved in a very <strong>unfortunate situation</strong>. The safety <strong>provoked a season-ending injury on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nick-chubb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nick Chubb</a></strong>, and the <strong>defensive player</strong> has finally <strong>opened up</strong> on the matter.</p>



<p>The last game of <strong>Week 2 </strong>was a complete disaster for the Browns. Besides being <strong>defeated by the Steelers</strong>, Cleveland has a more relevant loss, as <strong>Nick Chubb suffered a season-ending knee injury</strong> due to an unfortunate hit by Minkah Fitzpatrick.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230921#BUS#65854"></div>


<p>In the play, the Steelers’ safety made contact with Nick Chubb’s <strong>left leg</strong>, particularly the <strong>lower part</strong>, causing the <strong>rest </strong>of the running back’s <strong>body </strong>to <strong>lurch forward</strong>. Unfortunately, <strong>Chubb’s knee became trapped in the process</strong>, resulting in a <strong>severe injury</strong> that has <strong>prematurely ended his 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season</strong>.</p>



<h2>Minkah Fitzpatrick talks about Nick Chubb’s season-ending injury</h2>



<p><strong>No player wishes to inflict an injury</strong>, let alone one that ends a season. Regrettably, <strong>Minkah Fitzpatrick</strong> found himself in such a situation during the match against the Browns, leading to <strong>Nick Chubb’s absence for the remainder of the season</strong>.</p>



<p><em><strong>“It’s very unfortunate. It’s a tough, tough injury,”</strong></em> Fitzpatrick said, via ESPN. <em>“Unfortunately, <strong>part of the game</strong> that we play. I know there’s <strong>people that (thought I) had ill will behind the tackle.</strong> It’s not the case whatsoever. I’m a guy that’s a competitor who’s going to go out there and play the game. I’m chippy. I’m edgy, of course, but<strong> I’m not a dirty player.</strong> I’m not going to sit here and defend my character. I know the type of player I am. <strong>Chubb knows the type of player I am</strong>. I’ve played against him a bunch in the past. Five years, two times a year. I love competing against him. He brings the best out of me, and I bring the best out of him.”</em></p>



<p>During the play, Chubb was rushing towards the Steelers endzone when he found Fitzpatrick. <strong>The safety did go low while attempting the tackle</strong>, but of course there was <strong>no intention of hurting the running back</strong>.</p>



<p><em>“<strong>No chance that I would ever try to purposefully injure somebody</strong>. Unfortunate event,”</em> he said. <em>“We play a physical game. <strong>People get hurt</strong>, and you know, people sit behind a screen and tell me how I shoulda done it or what they would have done and they’ve never played the game. It’s a fast game. Things happen.”</em></p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230919#BUS#64968"></div>


<h2>When will Nick Chubb return from his knee injury?</h2>



<p>The Browns said that Chubb <strong>will be out for the remainder of the 2023 NFL season</strong>, but have not revealed if he will be ready to start the next campaign.</p>

<p>In Week 2 of the <strong>2023 NFL season</strong>, the Browns suffered two loses. They were defeated by the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns">Pittsburgh </a><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Steelers</a></strong>, but the most relevant matter was a tough <strong>knee injury that Nick Chubb</strong> suffered during the game.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230920#BUS#65423"></div>


<p>The Browns confirmed afterwards that <strong>Chubb </strong>would miss the rest of the season, losing probably the <strong>best offensive player</strong> they have. For that reason, they needed to sign another running back, and Kareem Hunt was the best option available for them.</p>



<h2>Browns’ head coach reveals who will be the team’s starting running back</h2>



<p>Losing Nick Chubb has been very tough for the Browns. The running back suffered a <strong>season-ending injury</strong> during the game against the Steelers, and even his participation in the <strong>upcoming campaign is in jeopardy</strong>.</p>



<p>During the rest of the match, Cleveland utilized <strong>Jerome Ford as RB1</strong>. However, they have since <strong>re-signed Kareem Hunt to a 1-year, $4 million deal</strong> to bolster their running back depth.</p>



<p>With Hunt’s arrival, fans began to wonder who would be the team’s starting running back. <strong>HC Kevin Stefanski has clarified those doubts</strong> by stating that <strong>Jerome Ford will be the lead back</strong> for the remainder of the season.</p>



<p><strong>Re-signing Hunt was a surprising move</strong> by the Browns. Earlier this year, they chose not to retain the former Chiefs player because they believed his <strong>speed was <em>“slipping.”</em></strong> However, in their search for a backup running back, it appears they have reconsidered that assessment.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230919#BUS#65167"></div>

<p><strong>Week 2</strong> of the <strong>2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season</strong> was a <strong>nightmare </strong>for the Browns. While facing the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a></strong>, Cleveland lost Nick Chubb due to an <strong>awful knee injury</strong>, and the team has confirmed that he will be out for the rest of the campaign.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230919#BUS#65134"></div>


<p>Now, the Browns are facing a huge problem. With their <strong>star running back sidelined</strong>, Cleveland must <strong>sign a new player to replace him</strong>, and they have two main options on the table for the starter role.</p>



<h2>Report: Browns target two top running backs to replace Nick Chubb</h2>



<p>Nick Chubb won’t be able to return to play for the Browns this year. The team has confirmed that their star running back will be out for a<strong><em> ‘significant amount of time,’</em></strong> with hopes of his recovery in time for the 2024 season.</p>



<p>Following his injury, the <strong>Browns used Jerome Ford as the starter</strong>, but they are reportedly looking for another player for their backfield. It seems like the team has <strong>narrowed down its options to only two running backs</strong> to replace Chubb.</p>



<p>According to Mary Kay Cabot, insider of the team, the Browns could be interested in trading with the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-rams-make-intriguing-roster-move-with-rb-cam-akers-20230918-BUS-64488.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Rams for Cam Akers</a></strong>.

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a></strong> were dealt a massive blow during their loss to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Pittsburgh Steelers</strong>.</a> If losing to a divisional rival wasn’t bad enough, l<strong>osing a star like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nick-chubb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nick Chubb</a></strong> is a real catastrophe.</p>



<p>Chubb suffered a brutal hit from <strong>Steelers S Minkah Fitzpatrick</strong>, and the images were so gruesome that ESPN didn’t even show the replay. He’s going to miss the whole season, and maybe even further.</p>



<p>With that in mind,<strong> Browns GM Andrew Berry </strong>needs to leave no stone unturned to try and get a replacement. <strong>Jerome Ford</strong> did well stepping up, but they might still need to dig deep into the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL </a></strong>trade market or free agency to add more depth.</p>



<h2>Potential Replacements For Nick Chubb</h2>



<p><strong>3. Kareem Hunt:</strong> <strong>Kareem Hunt</strong> had a decent stint with the team, but they decided not to bring him back this offseason. He wanted a bigger role, and now that Chubb is no longer in the picture, he might finally get it, and he’s still unsigned.</p>



<p><strong>2. Elijah Mitchell: Elijah Mitchell </strong>broke out as a very good running back before injuries held him back. He’s still been productive, but with <strong>Christian McCaffrey</strong> healthy, the <strong>San Francisco 49ers</strong> might let him go at a reasonable price.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230919#BUS#65063"></div>


<p><strong>1. Cam Akers: </strong>The <strong>Los Angeles Rams</strong> didn’t activate<strong> Cam Akers</strong> on Sunday, and HC <strong>Sean McVay </strong>made it clear that they don’t want him on the team anymore. That might be due to disciplinary issues, but the talent is there, and he should be very easy to get.</p>

<p>The Browns will now try to ride with backup RB <strong>Jerome Ford</strong>, who had a very solid game filling in for Chubb. They could also dig deep into the free agency market to get more depth at the position.</p>

<p>A new <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season</strong> is about to start, and <strong>Fantasy Football leagues</strong> are warming up for an exciting campaign. As several drafts have not happened yet, here is the ranking of the <strong>top 5 running backs</strong> to <strong>pick </strong>for <strong>your team</strong> this year.</p>



<p>The waiting is finally over for football fans. A new NFL season is arriving, and everyone is thrilled to see their teams in action. However, there’s another big reason why they are excited: <strong>fantasy leagues</strong>.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230728#BUS#36993"></div>


<p>Each year, thousands of fantasy leagues start alongside the NFL season. Fans want to select the <strong>best players available</strong>, so here is the list of the <strong>top 5 running backs</strong> you need to go for to secure a lot of points each week.</p>



<h2>2023 NFL Fantasy Football: Ranking the top 5 running backs</h2>



<p>The running back position is key for every single fantasy football team. They have several ways to add points each game, so it is vital to have a <strong>solid starter</strong> to rely on each week.</p>



<ol><li><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/christian-mccaffrey" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Christian McCaffrey</a> (<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/san-francisco-49ers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">San Francisco 49ers</a>)</strong>: Even though it is not expected that CMC has the same workload this year, the 49ers have a remarkable offense. Also, it seems like <strong>Brock Purdy</strong> could use him more in case the quarterback needs to get rid of the ball urgently.</li><li><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/austin-ekeler" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Austin Ekeler</a> (<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-chargers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Los Angeles Chargers</a>)</strong>: It doesn’t seem like the Chargers will trade Ekeler despite his request. He has been one of the best running backs in recent years in terms of fantasy points, and he’s also <strong>committed to prove his fantasy ‘owners’ </strong>that they did well by drafting him.</li><li><strong>Bijan Robinson (<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-falcons" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Atlanta Falcons</a>)</strong>: Yes, a rookie is a top 3 in this list. For many scouts, Robinson is one of the best running backs that college football has had recently, and that’s why he was selected in this year’s first round by Atlanta.</li><li><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nick-chubb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nick Chubb</a> (<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a>)</strong>: Even though the Browns have not been able to become a competitive squad, somehow Nick Chubb has emerged as one of the best running backs in the entire league, and his fantasy numbers are really attractive for owners.</li><li><strong>Tony Pollard (<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a>)</strong>: After waiting for his opportunity, Pollard will finally be the <strong>starting running back of Dallas</strong>. Last year he had a more important role, but not entirely primary. With the franchise tag on him, he will definitely try to have an amazing season to prove he’s worthy of a long-term deal.</li></ol>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230827#BUS#53303"></div>


<p>Of course, there are other elite running backs to consider, like <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saquon-barkley" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Saquon Barkley</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/josh-jacobs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Josh Jacobs</a></strong>, and <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dalvin-cook" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dalvin Cook</a></strong>, among others. However, their situations are not ideal; the first two didn’t reach contract extensions, which could impact on their performance, and Cook will play for a new team this year.</p>

2023 Fantasy Football: Top 5 running backs to draft for your team


<p>It’s been a while since the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-browns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland Browns</a> </strong>last had a legit superstar, and we’re not talking just<strong> about the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> field.</strong> That’s why the loss of legendary<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/jim-brown-passed-away-what-happened-to-the-nfl-legend-20230519-BUS-2431.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jim Brown </a></strong>was such a big blow.</p>



<p>Brown made his presence felt outside of the gridiron as well. He was an advocate for <strong>minority rights</strong> and even a big celebrity. But he was also a great human being first and foremost.</p>



<p>That’s why this season could have a special meaning for <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Browns-Myles-Garrett-shares-slightly-concerning-injury-update-20230419-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Myles Garrett</a> and </strong>c<strong>ompany.</strong> Recently, the team’s stars opened up on how much Brown meant to them and the organization.</p>



<h2>Myles Garrett, Nick Chubb Open Up On Jim Brown’s Legacy</h2>



<p>“<strong><em>Jim Brown was everything here,”</em></strong> Garrett said. “<em><strong>It’s in the name. At the end of the day he was, I believe, the very first person to call me to tell me that I was coming here and that they were glad to have me be a Cleveland Brown and be a part of this organization.</strong> That still means a lot to me.</em>“</p>



<p><strong><em>“That’s as great as it gets, as a football player, as a man, as a spokesman for inequality for civil rights, I mean he has done it all,”</em></strong> the pass-rusher added. <em>“He’s been the blueprint, he’s been the role model for a lot of us as players and as men. So we look up to him, we’re very sad about his passing, and we are still going to try and do our best for him.”</em></p>

</div></figure>



<p>If that wasn’t enough praise already, Browns star <strong>Nick Chubb </strong>said that he would now have a bigger purpose to give it his best on the field, stating that he’ll play for him from now on:</p>



<p><em>“The most impactful thing is probably just stand for what you believe in. He was a strong man. He stood for a lot of things, and he was himself. <strong>I think that’s the biggest thing I take from him. Just always be true to yourself. I’m definitely playing for him from here on out,”</strong> </em>Chubb said.</p>



<p>The Browns already had more than enough motivation to get the job done next season. But <strong>an extra push is always welcome</strong>, and they’ll now look to make the legendary RB proud.</p>

<p>Some people are arguing that running backs aren’t nearly half as determinant as they used to be. In fact, teams are often lowballing their stars on that position <strong>even if they threaten to sit out for the season.</strong></p>

<h2>10. Aaron Jones</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_aaron_jones_crop1594321853908.jpg_1030179834_e0869610.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Jones averages 5.0 yards per carry over his career. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>The Packers</strong> have lacked a reliable running back since Eddy Lacy’s downfall but it seems like they’ve finally found their guy. <strong>Aaron Jones </strong>started all 16 games last season and was tied with Derrick Henry for the most rushing touchdowns in the season (16).</p>
<p>Jones proved to be a huge red-zone threat and a solid 3 down kind of running back. Also, with the Packers cautiously leaning towards balancing their offense and trying to protect their 36-year-old quarterback, <strong>we expect them to feed Jones as often as possible next year.</strong></p>
<h2>9. Nick Chubb</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_nick_chubb_crop1594322032417.jpg_1030179834_153e9e36.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Chubb was the 35th overall pick in 2018. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Nick Chubb</strong> has been forced to share the backfield with Duke Johnson and Carlos Hyde earlier on his career until the Cleveland Browns finally let him loose. He’s been nothing short of spectacular when given the chance to prove his worth.</p>
<p>Chubb <strong>rushed for 1,494 yards and 8 scores</strong> last season while averaging just over 90 yards per game and 5.0 yards per carry. He’s also got great hands and is an effective threat in the passing game as well. Then again, he plays for the Browns, so anything can happen.</p>
<h2>8. Todd Gurley</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_todd_gurley_crop1594322208601.jpg_1030179834_26c6cf02.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Gurley was the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year in 2017. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>We’re all rooting for <strong>Todd Gurley</strong> now. It’s crazy to see how quickly things can change in the NFL. Gurley was the best running back in the game three years ago and now the Rams pretty much paid him a lot of money just to get rid of him.</p>
<p>Gurley’s going to play with a chip on his shoulder all season and that’s a scary thought. If he can stay healthy <strong>(which is a big IF)</strong>, he’ll finally provide the balance the Atlanta Falcons’ offense has lacked since Devonta Freeman’s breakout year.</p>
<h2><strong>7. Alvin Kamara</strong></h2>
<p></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_alvin_kamara_crop1594322344916.jpg_1030179834_b531d935.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Kamara has 38 career touchdowns. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Alvin Kamara</strong> had a bit of a down year last season but he wasn’t fully healthy and he didn’t have Drew Brees under center for a third of the season, so we can definitely expect him to bounce back in 2020.</p>
<p>Kamara is one of the strongest and fastest players you’ll find in the gridiron and his <strong>tackle-breaking ability is still elite.</strong> Having Brees back at full strength will open up a lot of lanes for him to prove his worth again.</p>
<h2>6. Joe Mixon</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_joe_mixon_crop1594322530338.jpg_1030179834_2a66fae7.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Mixon was the 48th overall pick in 2017. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Joe Mixon</strong> is one of the most versatile running backs in the league. He can be a huge threat on screen passes and wreak havoc in opposing secondaries, or just fight his way between the tackles as a 3-down kind of back.</p>
<p>The Bengals have been abysmal since Mixon entered the league in 2017 but they’ll finally have AJ Green back plus first overall pick Joe Burrow, which can only improve their putrid offense. Mixon has been their lone bright spot thus far with<strong> almost 3,000 yards from scrimmage over the past 2 seasons.</strong></p>
<h2>5. Dalvin Cook</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_dalvin_cook_crop1594322786707.jpg_1030179834_d78713c1.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Cook attended Florida State University. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>There were a lot of concerns about<strong> Dalvin Cook’s</strong> durability but now that we’ve finally seen him play a full season, we get why the Minnesota Vikings were so high and patient with him. He’s the real deal and their best back since Adrian Peterson.</p>
<p>Cook became a huge insurance policy for <strong>Kirk Cousins</strong> and piled up 1,135 rushing yards with 13 rushing touchdowns to go along with 53 receptions and519 yards. He has a legit shot at being a top-3 back if he stays healthy this season.</p>
<h2>4. Derrick Henry</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_derrick_henry_crop1594323048904.jpg_1030179834_00d8b7bf.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Henry is a former Heisman winner. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Just when some people were ready to give up on him, <strong>Derrick Henry</strong> finally broke out. Now, he’ll have to carry the load for the Tennessee Titans again after leading the NFL in carries (303), rushing yards (1,540) and rushing touchdowns (16).</p>
<p>Henry’s big and strong frame allows him to break loose despite three linebackers trying to take him down. Getting stiff-armed by him <strong>must feel like hitting a brick wall.</strong> He’s also turned into a solid threat in the passing game with 206 yards and a couple of scores last year.</p>
<h2><strong>3. Ezekiel Elliott</strong></h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_ezekiel_elliott_crop1594323465053.jpg_1030179834_dd99b5f3.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Elliott was the 4th overall pick in 2106. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Ezekiel Elliott </strong>got paid big time last year and it didn’t take him long to prove why after a slow start to the season. He posted 1,777 total yards last year and has already led the league in rushing twice while not missing a single game over four seasons.</p>
<p>Elliott has a legit shot at becoming the greatest running back in a franchise that also had <strong>Tony Dorsett and Emmit Smith,</strong> that’s just how good he is. There’s just no true way of slowing him down and the Cowboys will only go as far as he takes them, even despite Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper’s presence.</p>
<h2>2. Saquon Barkley</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <figure class="image"><img alt="" data-height="333" data-size="w:1024,h:570" data-width="600" hspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20200709_BUS_163287_saquon_barkley_crop1594323690938.jpg_1030179834_b02ec34b.webp&amp;width=500&amp;height=310" title="" vspace="5"></figure><figcaption>   Barkley was the NFL’s Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2018. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Saquon Barkley</strong> is just ridiculous. He’s got an incredible ability to create something out of nothing, break tackles, and take off at an insane speed. His athletic traits make him simply unstoppable, even on a team like the Giants.</p>
<p>Barkley has already piled up<strong>3,469 yards from scrimmage and 23 touchdowns </strong>since entering the league two seasons ago and he’s just getting started. The Giants will take anything Daniel Jones can give them but it’s pretty clear that their offense will flow through Saquon’s rock-hard quads.</p>

<p><strong>Christian McCaffrey</strong> entered the NFL while holding theNCAArecord for most all-purpose yards in a season (3,864) and instantly proved that his ability as a dual-threat back could translate <a href="https://www.nfl.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to the NFL.</a> He’s already amassed 5,443 yards (2,920 rushing, 2,524 receiving) in just three seasons in the league.</p>
<p>McCaffrey looks like the kind of player you create in Madden. There aren’t any flaws in his game. <strong>He’s the highest-paid running back in NFL history </strong>for a reason after piling over 1,000 rushing yards and 1,000 receiving yards in 2019 and he’ll look to build on those performances in 2020.</p>
