Sources: The #Browns fear Nick Chubb’s season is over from a possible knee dislocation, potentially with multiple ligament damage.

He’s currently undergoing testing, but there’s serious concern.

The #Bears have had Justin Fields start 27 games so far in the NFL:

- They are 5-22 in those games
- He has been sacked 101 (!) times.
- His completion percentage is 59.8%
- He has thrown 26 TDs to 24 INTs.
- He has fumbled 31 times (8 lost)
- He's averaging just 156.5 passing yards per game in his career.

And after rushing for over 1,000 yards last season, the Bears have had Fields carry the ball just 13 times in 2 games this season.



Bonus: CJ Stroud has more NFL games for throwing over 300 yards than Fields

Stefanski says the Browns front office is “working on” adding a running back, “working through potential options.

WHOA. #Giants Brian Daboll wouldn't rule out Saquon Barkley vs. #49ers. "He feels a lot better today."

Increasing chance that Akers gets dealt soon. Cleveland makes sense with Chubb now done for the year.

I can think of 1 decent running back who is available and very familiar with the Browns. Perhaps there was bad blood when he left, but if not, it seems too obvious.

Really hope it happens by Wednesday because I have the number 2 waiver priority and it's burning a hole in my pocket with Jerome Ford and Christian Kirk on waivers. The idea of him going to Cleveland or Baltimore would entice me enough to keep Akers rostered.

They still let him walk and decided to keep Ford. Maybe it was just a money issue. But, it's obvious that they really like Ford.

Why are we so confident Kupp immediately becomes WR1 when he returns? Puka may just be flat out better. I say this as someone who drafted Kupp 4th overall.
