Count the Houston Texans as a potential landing spot for long-time Cleveland Browns running back, Nick Chubb.
As the NFL prepares to enter hibernation mode with free agency and the draft wrapped up, there are still a handful of teams that could look to add the oft-injured running back, who the Browns have allowed to sit on the open market over the last two months.
NFL.com columnist Jeffri Chadiha listed the Texans as a potential fit for the services of the 29-year-old Chubb, who is reportedly on the outer in Cleveland after the Browns drafted Quinshon Judkins in the second round of the draft.
“There really aren’t a ton of great options for Chubb at this stage,” Chadiha wrote.
“The Texans are a possibility only because they aren’t that strong at running back after Joe Mixon, as backup Dameon Pierce has disappointed since rushing for 939 yards as a rookie three years ago.”
Chubb rushed for only 332 yards and three touchdowns in another injury-plagued year, but he would no doubt add some depth to the Texans running back room that ranked 15th in yards and 16th in rushing touchdowns last season.
