Salvages fantasy day late Chubb rushed 11 times for 95 yards and a touchdown and secured his only target for three yards in the Browns' 31-21 win over the Texans on Sunday. Impact Chubb was having an efficient but relatively non-descript day against a vulnerable Texans run defense until he exploded for a 26-yard touchdown run with just under six minutes remaining to give Cleveland some valuable breathing room after Houston had closed to within 24-21. The reduced workload on the ground Sunday was a disappointment for fantasy managers, especially considering Kareem Hunt outpaced Chubb by a pair of carries. That could well prove to be an anomaly based on each player's past usage, as Chubb's fantasy managers will hope is quickly proven out in a Week 3 home battle against the Bears.
