CLEVELAND, OH — Cleveland Browns fans had an exciting evening as the team picked up its first win of the season. But the excitement didn’t stop there, as former running back Nick Chubb surprisingly revealed that he “wouldn’t rule out” a return to the team he spent nearly a decade with.
Chubb, who is still recovering from a serious injury last season, was in the stands cheering on his teammates during the season opener. When asked by reporters about his feelings, Chubb smiled:
“I still love this place, I still love this city, and especially this locker room. Winning my first game like that makes me miss what it was like to play with my brothers.”
Inside sources say the Browns are still in touch with Chubb and aren’t closing the door on re-signing him, especially if the team needs more depth at running back. Although there has been no official offer, Chubb’s public declaration of his desire to return has sent fans into a frenzy on social media.
Fans react furiously
Shortly after the statement, the hashtag #BringBackChubb was trending on Twitter/X in Ohio. One fan wrote: “This season would be special if Chubb came back and helped us go far.”
The big question is:
Will the Browns risk bringing back a player who has just recovered from injury, or will they prioritize keeping the current team that is performing well?
For Nick Chubb, the decision may not just be about football, but also about the feeling of “coming home.” And for the Browns, bringing back a living legend could be a huge morale boost for both the locker room and the fans.
If that happens, the opening win could be just the beginning of a Cleveland fairy tale.
