Running back Nick Chubb of the Cleveland Browns is recovering from an injury ahead of schedule, and he recently
shared photos of his intense training regimen to get ready to play again. In an attempt to return to All-Pro form for
the NFL this season, Chubb is aiming to turn around a horrific knee injury he sustained in the past twice in his career
inside the University of Georgia’s training facility.
“I enjoy the place I’m at. In his first remarks in public this offseason, Chubb told the Associated Press earlier this
month, “I’m where I need to be.” “I think that improving daily is what matters most to me.”
This week’s training video demonstrates managing precise one-legged leaps on his surgically healed knee. After a hit
by Pittsburgh Steelers defender Minkah Fitzpatrick in Week 2 of the previous season, Chubb’s knee was completely
destroyed.
After being selected by the Browns with the 35th overall choice in the 2018 draft, Chubb was in the middle of his
sixth season with the organization.
In order to help the team, he was willing to restructure his deal and take a salary cut this offseason in Cleveland.
“A boon,” Chubb remarked. “I mean, they could have just chopped me dry and abandoned me? But their work was
excellent. I want to be in Cleveland right now. We reached a tremendous position since they are aware of that.
Four-time Pro Bowler Chubb is one of the most cherished athletes in program history and has been Kirby Smart’s
coach of choice. He visits Athens frequently.
He was a former five-star prospect in the 2014 recruiting class and was rated by 247Sports as the fourth-best
ballcarrier of that cycle and the 17th best player nationwide.
According to Smart, via Dawgs247, “He’s an incredible human being first and foremost” last year. “Is there any
young person who continues to work out like him in the weight room, strength coach program, and track? It’s just
really uncommon to see someone as kind and humble as he is in the sports world. I made contact with him. He
presumably doesn’t expect anything in return because he’s been inundated with requests from all different kinds of
people. I have the utmost regard for him and everything he does for this program—toughness, buy-in, and giving
back.”
When Smart took over as head coach of the Bulldogs in 2015, Chubb was still recovering from a knee injury. In
Smart’s return to the field, he hauled in 32 passes for 222 yards and two touchdowns as the Bulldogs defeated North
Carolina 33–24. For Chubb, the first game of the season set the tone. In 2015, he carried the ball 224 times for 1,130
yards and eight touchdowns. During his time in the NFL, Chubb has rushed for 6,511 yards and 48 touchdowns.
