The Cleveland Browns gave former Georgia Bulldog running back Nick Chubb the ball with the game on the line. Nick Chubb did not let Cleveland down.
On third-and-3, with a little more than a minute to go Nick Chubb took a toss play outside the hash marks, made a man miss and he was off to the races. Nobody was catching Nick Chubb, but that didn’t stop him from going out of bounds at the 1-yard line instead of scoring a touchdown.
Chubb knew the game’s situation well. If he scored, then Cleveland would be up 17-7, but the Houston Texans would’ve gotten the ball back. Sure, Houston would’ve needed multiple scores in under a minute, but NFL fans saw some crazy things this past week including a Hail Mary catch by DeAndre Hopkins.
Instead of scoring, Chubb put his team first and ran the ball out of bounds. Cleveland kneeled a few times and won 10-7. Here’s the play where Nick Chubb ripped out the clutch run to put the game away:
Nick Chubb just broke all of his fantasy managers’ hearts 🤣

Chubb’s fantasy managers will be upset, but Nick Chubb cares about winning, not about fantasy sports. Chubb was happy to return from injury and improve Cleveland’s playoff hopes. The Browns are 6-3 overall and will look to lean on Nick Chubb moving forward.
