It is difficult to be universally liked; however, Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb is the closest thing to being one of the most liked and respected players in the NFL.
Even in enemy territory at Acrisure Stadium when he went down with an injury, the Steelers fans gasped when they saw the replay and gave him a huge round of applause while chanting “Chubb” as the cart carrying him drove into the locker room.

And Kareem Hunt, his former running back partner, reminded all of us that Chubb identifies with the superhero Batman so hopefully it will not be as bad as it looked.

CBS Sports reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala, who has also worked closely with the Browns in her career, said it better than the rest of us possibly could.
I get that we’re supposed to be unbiased impartial journalists. But Nick Chubb is everything football is supposed to be. The way he runs, the way he works, the teammate he is… I feel so deflated. And am praying for a miracle. #Browns 💔

ESPN’s Mina Kimes is gutted just like us.
Goddamnit there are few football players on earth who give me more joy than Nick Chubb. I’m sick for him.
