Returns to limited practice Chubb (calf) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact Chubb didn't practice at all last week, so his limited participation Wednesday is a step in the right direction. The running back previously relayed that he hopes to play Sunday against the Steelers, but such an outcome hinges on how his calf responds to the work he does at practice this week. If Chubb remains out or is limited at all this weekend, D'Ernest Johnson would continue to see an expanded role in the Browns Week 8 rushing attack, with Kareem Hunt (calf) on IR.

Browns' Mayfield tests shoulder, hopes to play vs Steelers
Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield hated missing one start because of his shoulder injury and doesn’t want to sit againOCTOBER 27, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Hopeful regarding Sunday's status Chubb hopes to play Sunday against the Steelers, but he needs to see how his calf injury responds in practice this week, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Impact With that in mind, Chubb indicated that his calf feels good after he put some work in Monday, but how it holds up after Wednesday's practice should give him a better idea of where's he's at in advance of Week 8 action. Look for the running back, who has missed the Browns' last two games, to officially be listed as a limited participant when Wednesday's injury report is posted.

Expected to return Week 8 Chubb (calf) is expected to return to game action during Sunday's matchup against the Steelers, Josina Anderson of USA Today reports.
Impact Chubb returned to practice Monday after missing the last two games due to a calf injury, but coach Kevin Stefanski has remained optimistic that the running back will be back on the field against Pittsburgh. The 2018 second-rounder is expected to suit up Sunday as long as he doesn't experience any setbacks in practice this week, and his presence would provide a significant boost to the team's rushing attack with Kareem Hunt (calf) sidelined.

Back at practice Monday Chubb (calf) is participating in Monday's practice, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact Chubb has missed back-to-back contests due to a calf injury, but it looks like he's now progressing toward a return. Coach Kevin Stefanski also recently expressed optimism that Chubb could retake the field Week 8 against the Steelers, which would provide the team with a significant boost on offense. Though D'Ernest Johnson impressed with 146 rushing yards and a score versus the Broncos, the impact of Chubb's involvement in the ground attack can't be overstated for Cleveland, and getting consisted production between the tackles will be more key than ever if Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is again unavailable.

Impact Chubb sat out his second straight game Thursday due to his calf injury, and with Kareem Hunt landing on injured reserve earlier in the week with a calf strain of his own, it was D'Ernest Johnson who picked up the start at running back in the Browns' 17-14 win over the Broncos. Though Johnson (22 carries for 146 yards and a touchdown) did his part to keep the Cleveland ground game rolling, Stefanski would surely welcome the return of Chubb, who is averaging more than five yards per carry for the fourth consecutive season. Because of the longer turnaround for the Week 8 contest, the Browns will resume practicing Monday, so fantasy managers could gain some early clarity on whether Chubb is trending toward a return to the lineup or a third consecutive absence.
