Nick Chubb Injury: Punishing RB Likely To Play vs. Falcons With Foot Issue
2 min read • December 20, 2022
Pro-bowl running back Nick Chubb was present but didn't participate in Browns' practice on Tuesday after he appeared to suffer a left foot injury in their Week 15 win.
By video, Chubb appeared to suffer the minor foot injury on an 18-yard rush with 4:37 left in the second quarter, according to the Pro Football Docs. He had his left foot trapped under a Ravens defender on the tackle and left the game immediately after that run.
He returned and had 14 carries for 68 yards after the play, including the game-ending 11-yard tote just before the two minute warning.
The Pro Football Docs expect Chubb to return to practice as soon as Wednesday and play this Saturday against the Saints with an SIC score of 82.
The fifth-year back hasn't missed a game this season and is top-4 in the NFL in every major rushing category. He's rushed 252 times for 1,252 yards, 12 touchdowns, and 12 rushes of 20-plus yards.
