Nick Chubb leads the questionable Browns with Jerome Ford out against Bengals
While it is Battle of Ohio week in the NFL, it is clearly Nick Chubb week as the Cleveland Browns face off with the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7 of the NFL season. Both teams have had disappointing starts but look to turn things around as they enter AFC North play.
The vibes were obviously high as Chubb’s Browns teammates cheered for him as he started his press conference. While Chubb was a full participant all week, HC Kevin Stefanski reported he would be listed as questionable. Cleveland’s star running back is still on the PUP list as well.
The story posted by the team on Friday of Chubb’s recovery process is well worth your time.
More positive news came Thursday at practice with OL Ethan Pocic back on the field but he will also be listed as questionable.
The final injury reports are now out with just one Bengals player questionable:
