Nick Chubb Sets Unique Record
Nick Chubb is 4 games into his NFL career and beginning to find his way into the running back rotation for the Cleveland Browns.
Going into this past Sunday, the 1st year back out of Georgia had just 7 carries for 41 yards.
Against the Raiders, Chubb’s workload didn’t get any higher. His production sure did, though. Chubb rushed for 105 yards and two touchdowns on… 3 carries. His first touchdowns and first 100 yard game.
According to Elias Sports, Chubb is the first player in NFL history with this stat line.
There have been over 1,200 instances of a player having 100+ Rush yards and 2 TD in a game in NFL history.

Currently at 14.5 yards per carry, it may be time to get Chubb the ball more. His former Georgia teammate, and current Patriot, Sony Michel seems to think so.
Can @NickChubb21 be featured now ?
