The famous Cleveland Browns are back to work. Nick Chubb is about to return to the prairie. Chubb has been out since the 2-year-old’s peak season, when he suffered fatal knee trauma during a Monday night game against the top rival Pittsburgh Steelers.
On the eve of his return, Chubb expresses his feelings about the trauma itself and the support he’s gotten from the Browns team and the city of Cleveland over the past year, in a first-person piece on The Avid Gamers’. Grandstand.
“Damn, I really did that shit. again“.
That was my first idea and then I left, I’m sick of Pittsburgh’s extreme season. Even though they hurt you like they hurt me, the strange thing is that you don’t even feel anything else. However you pay attention the totality. You pay attention to that strange tranquility within the family. You will be able to feel your teammates gathering more or less around you.
You’re hearing a lot of “Everything’s going to be okay, bro.”
This is by no means an adequate signal. As soon as guys start saying, “I’m sick in one knee,” you understand that it’s very malicious. If it’s my teammates praying for me, maybe it’s just a bone bruise. Possibly it will be again via playoffs.
However now they gave me steelmakers praying for me?
That’s when you understand that it is essential. Black ideas begin to appear.
Widely regarded as possibly the league’s easiest natural running back throughout his generation in the NFL, Chubb is a four-time Pro Bowler who has averaged over five yards per rush in every season of his career. He signed a three-year, $36.6 million commitment, but this offseason he will finally renegotiate his salary for the 2024 season, losing his salary cap hit by $9.9 million. Chubb said in his Avid Players’ Tribune post that the Browns never thought they wouldn’t bring him back, but for an interesting reason.
“When my agent called me to tell me the news, he said, ‘I’ve never actually had a front office tell me anything like this. But they said part of the reason they never considered cutting you is because of how much it means to the team.’ city,‘” Chubb said. “That really meant a lot to me. Look, I know the deal. I had no guaranteed money left. The Browns had all the influence. They could have left me high and dry, like so many guys in this league. But they supported me. You “Everyone supported me.”
That reasoning prompted Chubb to take a stand on his return: “There’s only one thing left to do now. I have to return your money“.
