Browns (not) cutting Chubb

won't be much...NFLPA hammers HIPAA privacy rules on players.. Nick Chubb himself/agent, shouldn't release his medical info

Sadly, Most roster projections have Nick listed as going on reserve/PUP list to start the 2024 season. If so, Player must miss first 4 games of season at minimum.

Nick's injury report has been confirmed by everyone but Nick Chubb's medical staff. have read Multiple Reads like...

Chubb underwent surgery on Sept. 29 to repair his medial collaterial ligament, meniscus and medial capsule, the team confirmed Sept. 30 in a statement. Chubb also had a second surgery on Nov. 14th to repair his anterior cruciate ligament, the Browns said.

(MCL & ACL) and some still think full dislocation of left knee? (NFL/media former team Dr. Chao of Chargers)

No timeline, but Browns "on track" has been determined for his return. The Browns said early estimated recovery times suggest Chubb will be able to play "at some point" next season. (wonder where our bye week falls?)

?  ?   Good luck, 2-4 !

edit-- today's Dawand Jones injury update https://247sports.com/nfl/cleveland-browns/longformarticle/cleveland-browns-dawand-jones-229034010/#2390776

Good to see Stefanski enthusiastic about the expectation for Jones, Conklin and Wills being ready to compete for starting jobs at the start of training camp.  Great news!

That dudn't mean this team won't have an eye on OL prospects that have played both OT and OG given our situation.  K-State's Cooper Beebe has played LT, RT, LG, and RG so whoever does their diligence researching OL prospects may land this gem.  The 1 hurdle this 6-3 322 pound trench warrior would have to clear for consideration at LT would be his arm length of 31 1/2" (in comparison our RT Dawand Jones has an arm length of 36 3/8" and LT Jed Wills has an arm length of 34 1/4"). His lateral movement gets mentioned by some (not all) with me thinking a lot of this is when you play OT there's a lot of space on 1 side of you.  At OG, there's limited space on both sides of you - making your pass pro assignment easier. When you move from 1 spot to the other - there's a little curve for getting acclimated/reacclimated). 1 thing that never gets mentioned is the importance of a consistent pre-snap stance that sets up your leverage/success from the hips down (your base).   Wills has remained very inconsistent with getting into an ideal pre-snap stance despite having a great OL Coach like Callahan. This is why I've questioned how hard he's worked at things at times.  From my limited observation, Beebe seems pretty consistent with a stance that sets up his success.

If he runs well after the knee...he will be a casualty in 2025...we cant afford him.

Great news....Browns & Chubb sign a deal, although it's only a 1 year deal. Reduced salary with incentives.

Hopefully he can return to form & stay longer.

He's at the age where rb's start losing a step. Plus he's coming off a major injury. I'm hoping he can return to form. I'm still pissed that the injury happened at all.

We all feel the same.. Would've loved to have seen what Flacco could've been like with that kind of asset protecting him... Now that's just a dream flown bye... I just hope Chubb can run at all.. ?

Browns GM Andrew Berry provides Nick Chubb health update

[D Bone]

Man do I like Nick Chubb and not just the dude under the orange clothing, but the man himself.

As a 56yr old who has had many injuries and subsequent surgeries in my younger years as a motocross racer and now lives with the consequences on a daily basis, I hope the current Nick thinks a lot more about the future Nick because he is going to pay for it, like it or not.

While I selfishly want to see him back on the field, I really hope he has someone in his corner preaching about the big picture and what really matters in this life and football ain't it.

Nick Chubb's injury: One stat shows the impact of RB's absence

[Orion]

Just saw a facebook post that Chubb will miss half of the season.   Don't know how true it is but I'd be fine with him staying out until he's really ready.  Don't rush back Nick!  We'll be here when you get back.

Browns Nick Chubb: 'I'm where I need to be'

• Browns UDFA TE Treyton Welch excited for opportunities in Cleveland, learning from David Njoku (Barry Shuck) - Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry decided not to select a tight end in the 2024 NFL Draft, opting instead to sign Treyton Welch as an undrafted free agent.
• Nick Chubb’s workout videos are promising (Thomas Moore) - The Cleveland Browns have several questions heading into the upcoming season, and one of the biggest ones is when running back Nick Chubb will be able to return to the field as he continues to recover from two surgeries to repair his knee.
• Proposed 3 team trade is pointless for the Browns (Jared Mueller) - Trading Amari Cooper and getting back another OT while Davante Adams heads elsewhere is silly for Cleveland.
• NFL ‘Sunday Ticket’ lawsuit could derail Browns plans (Jared Mueller) - Since Andrew Berry took over as general manager of the Cleveland Browns in 2020, the salary cap has jumped from $198.2 million to $255.4 million despite a small downturn due to the COVID pandemic. But a class action lawsuit against the NFL’s “Sunday Ticket” threatens that revenue.
• Browns 2023 Season Rewind: Pierre Strong’s 41-yard screen play against Seattle (Matt Wilson) - In this installment of the Cleveland Browns 2023 Season Rewind, we’re going to break down Pierre Strongs’s long gain on a screen pass against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8.

Thanks Vambo!  Nobody bends steel like Nick Chubb!  If anyone can come back from an injury like that - it's him.

DBN: With the high amount of success you had in high school as a pass catcher, then at Wyoming the run game was prevalent and you weren’t getting the ball, why didn’t you consider entering the portal and going to a program that would use your pass-catching abilities?

Welch: That was given some thought, but when I signed my name with Wyoming and their coaches, I made a promise to play for their school, which became my school. I could not go back on that agreement. I was not getting the catches I wanted, but that is what I signed up for. They took me on and gave me an education, and asked that I play for them for four years and I had to stick to that.

DBN: You are a high-character guy. Why is that important?

Welch: You have to do what you say you are doing to do, and commit your time and resources to the task at hand. I want to be the person off the field that everyone knows what I am capable of, and will do what’s right to my abilities. We are on this earth to do good things and fill needs in life. God wants us to be good people.

.....it would be nice to see the guy that wears the white hat succeed once in a while.
