Browns RB Nick Chubb Voted Best Running Back by NFL Personnel
Cleveland Browns have a great one in running back Nick Chubb and those across the league agree. NFL coaches, players, scouts, and executives have voted Chubb as the No. 1 running back in the league, per ESPN.
- Nick Chubb – Cleveland Browns
- Christian McCaffrey – San Francisco 49ers
- Josh Jacobs – Las Vegas Raiders
- Saquon Barkley – New York Giants
- Derrick Henry – Tennessee Titans
- Jonathan Taylor – Indianapolis Colts
- Alvin Kamara – New Orleans Saints
- Dalvin Cook - Free Agent
- Tony Pollard – Dallas Cowboys
- Austin Ekeler – Los Angeles Chargers
Chubb is ahead of the likes of Christian McCaffrey, Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs, and Derrick Henry because of his consistency. After struggling with injury in college at Georgia, 2020 was the only season he has really had injury issues when he missed four games. Chubb had a career-high 1,525 rushing yards in 2022 and recorded 12 rushing touchdowns for the second time.
For four straight seasons now, Chubb has recorded at least 1,000 rushing yards. In his rookie season, he had 996 of them but made just nine starts. At the time, former coach Hue Jackson started Carlos Hyde for part of the season. Though Chubb has never eclipsed 300 receiving yards, he may in 2023 after the Browns let Kareem Hunt walk.
Chubb is averaging a whopping 5.2 yards per carry with 1,210 carries during his career thus far. There is not another running back in the league that combines the strength, speed, and agility that Chubb has.
The following players were next up and named as an honorable mention:
- Aaron Jones – Green Bay Packers
- Dameon Pierce – Houston Texans
- Breece Hall – New York Jets
- Travis Etienne – Jacksonville Jaguars
- Rhamondre Stevenson – New England Patriots
- Kenneth Walker – Seattle Seahawks
The following players received votes:
- Javonte Williams – Denver Broncos
- Najee Harris – Pittsburgh Steelers
- Miles Sanders – Carolina Panthers
- AJ Dillon – Green Bay Packers
