Nick Chubb Fantasy

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb was recently named the best ball-carrier in the league, according to Pro Football Focus. While the site stopped short of mentioning Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey, it acknowledged Chubb's 92.1 rushing grade since entering the league as the reason for the generous ranking. The 24-year-old finished second in 2019 with 1,494 rushing yards while racking up eight touchdowns on the ground. With a new coaching staff in the mix, Chubb is expected to surpass his production from last season despite conceding receptions to Kareem Hunt, making him a reliable first-round option in all fantasy formats for the upcoming 2020 campaign.

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb was recently named as one of the top players under 25, a list composed and published by CBSSports. Despite the Browns' inefficient play, Chubb was solid during the 2019 campaign and finished with 1,494 rushing yards on 298 attempts while adding eight touchdowns. Though the return of Kareem Hunt from suspension decreased his production to some degree, he still finished as one of the most elite backs in the league. With a new head coach and an enhanced offensive line, Chubb should get plenty of touches this season to justify his first-round ADP, but he will likely concede most of the team's passing attempts out of the backfield in 2020 to Hunt.

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb was held in check in a 33-23 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17. Chubb carried the ball 13 times for 41 yards and added a one-yard reception in the loss. It goes in the books as a disappointing outing for Chubb, who was facing off against a Cincinnati defense that has struggled against the run this season. The second-year running back will likely finish the 2019 season as the NFL's rushing leader. The organization is likely to undergo changes this offseason, including possibly a new head coach, but Chubb can be locked in as a solid RB1 in fantasy for the 2020 season.
