The Dawg Pound erupted in celebration today as beloved Browns running back Nick Chubb was officially cleared to return to the field after a grueling one-year recovery from a serious knee injury suffered early in the 2024 season.
Chubb, one of the NFL’s most respected and consistent rushers, sustained a major knee injury in Week 2 of last season, sidelining him for the remainder of the year. His absence was deeply felt not just on the field, but throughout the Browns community — a team leader, fan favorite, and heart of the offense.
The Browns confirmed Chubb’s return in a video shared across social media, featuring behind-the-scenes footage of his recovery journey and culminating in his first full-speed run at practice. The moment sent fans into a frenzy, with #ChubbIsBack trending within hours.
“Nick worked like hell to get here,” said head coach Kevin Stefanski. “He’s one of the toughest, most dedicated players I’ve ever coached. The team’s energy shot through the roof the second he stepped back on that field.”
Chubb, a four-time Pro Bowler, expressed his gratitude and excitement during a media appearance: “It’s been a long road. A lot of pain, a lot of hard days. But I never lost sight of getting back to doing what I love — playing for this team, this city.”
His return gives Cleveland a massive boost heading into the 2025 season. With Chubb back in the backfield and a hungry roster ready to compete, Browns fans are daring to dream of a deep playoff run — and maybe more.
