The Cleveland Browns had the lowest-scoring offense in the NFL last season, and while the quarterbacks took most of the blame for the futility, the running game wasn’t much better after producing fewer than 100 yards per game.
Cleveland hasn’t had a 100-yard rusher in a game since Week 10 in 2023, which is certainly a reason why superstar Nick Chubb was not retained by the club and is still floating around in free agency.

Many have clamored for the Browns to re-sign Chubb, but after drafting a pair of running backs in Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson, that appears unlikely to happen.
Wherever Chubb winds up, Browns fans will certainly be rooting for him.
