Chubb could be re-signed at any time, but it remains to be seen if the team will be willing to pursue a new deal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe complexion of our RB room has changed this weekend,\u201d\u00a0general manager\u00a0Andrew Berry\u00a0said after the draft (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TonyGrossi\/status\/1916206844797743510\" rel=\"nofollow\">via The Land on Demand\u2019s Tony Grossi<\/a>).\u00a0\u201cWe\u2019ll be assessing where the roster is in the coming week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cleveland currently has $16.59MM in cap space. A portion of that figure will be required to sign the team\u2019s draft picks and make other moves during the summer, but the funds for another Chubb contract should be available if needed. The four-time Pro Bowler agreed to a pay cut last offseason in a deal which put him on track for free agency in 2025. Based on his level of play, it comes as little surprise Chubb still finds himself on the market.<\/p>\n<p>After returning from the major knee injury he suffered early in the 2023 campaign, Chubb made a total of eight appearances last year. The 29-year-old logged a notable workload during that time, receiving double-digit carries six times. Chubb averaged only 3.3 yards per attempt \u2013 after seeing that figure range from 5.0 to 6.1 during each of his previous seasons \u2013 and he never managed more than 59 rushing yards in a contest in 2024, though. While a bounce-back season could be in store one more year removed from the injury, the Georgia product faces the possibility of never returning to his previous form.<\/p>\n<p>Based on Berry\u2019s remarks, a decision could be made soon with respect to Chubb\u2019s situation. If no new Browns deal is to come, it will be interesting to see how his free agency unfolds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nick Chubb\u00a0remains unsigned at this point of the offseason, and his Browns future is still uncertain.
