Browns Nick Chubb Weighs in on Kareem Hunt

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb spoke on how he felt about Kareem Hunt staying with the team.

The running back tandem of Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt is one of the best in the league, something Cleveland has ridden the past couple of years. As of late, there seems to be a chance that duo doesn’t exist for the long haul. Chubb, one of the best backs in the game, weighed in with what he wanted to happen.

“I want him to be here, whatever they got to do to keep him here,” Chubb said on NFL Network.

Hunt has rushed for 1,406 yards in Cleveland while being on the receiving end of 763 yards. This season approaching will be the fourth year the Hunt and Chubb have played together in Northeast Ohio.

“He’s my best friend, on and off the field.”

Chubb isn’t a man of many words, but when he speaks, perhaps the Browns should listen. If the price is right, maybe Cleveland can find a way to keep the Ohio native Hunt in Cleveland. If not, the Browns have players like D’Ernest Johnson and Jerome Ford, who could fill the gap.

The Browns might need a ton of production from the two this year, especially if Deshaun Watson is indefinitely suspended.
