At the start of training camp, Browns General Manager Andrew Berry said that running back Nick Chubb still had “a little ways to go” before being fully cleared to return from last year’s season-ending knee injury.
Chubb reportedly still has a bit more to do before he gets that green light. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Chubb is expected to remain on the physically unable to perform list into the regular season.

As the story points out, this would make Chubb ineligible to play in the first four games of the regular season and he would not count against the 53-man roster until he is activated from the list. Ford should have a pretty big role in the running game to at least start the season while Strong looks like a change of pace back. Foreman could get his share of carries as well, however, and has been a thorn in the side to fantasy owners over the last three years with the Bears, Panthers and Titans. Foreman has scored a total of 12 rushing TDs over that span, stealing work from the likes of Chuba Hubbard and Khalil Herbert.
