Star running back Nick Chubb is reportedly close to finalizing a one-year contract with the Houston Texans, pending the results of a physical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chubb, who spent his entire seven-year NFL career with the Cleveland Browns, is considered one of the league\u2019s most productive backs when healthy. He has racked up over 6,800 rushing yards and 50-plus touchdowns since entering the league, ranking among the Browns’ all-time greats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2024, Chubb’s season was cut short due to a foot injury, limiting him to just 332 rushing yards. His health will be a key factor heading into the Texans\u2019 training camp, where he\u2019s expected to compete in a deep backfield alongside Joe Mixon, Dameon Pierce, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If cleared, Chubb brings proven talent and veteran experience to a Houston offense that\u2019s steadily gaining momentum. The move also suggests the Texans are doubling down on a physical, run-first identity to support young quarterback C.J. Stroud.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
