Browns Get Amazing News on Nick Chubb Injury

The Cleveland Browns dropped two of their last three games before going on bye in Week 9, but things are looking up ahead of a Week 10 clash with the Houston Texans.

Star running back Nick Chubb, who has been on Injured Reserve with a knee injury since Week 4, appears to be set to return.

Chubb only made it through three full games to start the year, but he was outstanding in that stretch. He topped 100 yards in two of the three, averaging 103.0 yards from scrimmage and 1.3 touchdowns per game.

That success, of course, is a continuation of the terrific 110.8 yards from scrimmage per game that he averaged in his 2019 Pro Bowl season.

The Browns' offense is entirely different when they have Chubb in the lineup.

The Browns should get back Nick Chubb in Week 10 (missed last 4 games w/ knee injury)

Without Chubb, the Browns have...
- averaged 109 fewer rush YPG (204.5 rush YPG w/ Chubb, 95.5 rush YPG without)
- averaged 10.5 fewer PPG
- scored ZERO rush TD (8 rush TD in Wks 1-4 w/ Chubb)
