Every Cleveland Browns fan can remember where they were when the Houston Texans announced that they had signed running back Nick Chubb. It was a sad day in Northeast Ohio.
On Friday, Chubb announced his retirement from the NFL on an Instagram post. Chubb began the 2025 season as Houston's lead running back, but his snaps became more limited as the season rolled along, and eventually fourth-round rookie Woody Marks surpassed him. Chubb concluded the season with just nine starts and 326 offensive snaps, or 32% of all offensive plays.

Chubb follows the past greatness of exceptional running backs ****** ociated with the Browns such as Jim Brown, Kevin Mack, Marion Motley, Greg Pruitt, Leroy Kelly, Ernie Green, Earnest Byner, Dub Jones, and Bobby Mitchell.
Chubb was a second-round selection in the 2018 NFL Draft and pick #35 out of Georgia. He started just nine games in his rookie season and then was the starting RB beginning in 2019. He has rushed for over 1,000 yards in four seasons, including the 1,525 he gained in 2022. Chubb has been named to the Pro Bowl four times and voted Second Team All-Pro in 2022.
