Officially shifts to PUP list The Browns placed Chubb (knee) on the active/PUP list Wednesday.

Impact Chubb will officially begin training camp on the PUP list, as expected. He can be activated at any point throughout camp or the preseason once ready to practice, and upon passing a physical. The 28-year-old running back is working his way back from a severe left knee injury, including two separate surgeries to repair his MCL and ACL. Chubb has made encouraging workout progress this offseason and is expected to be healthy and available for game action at some point during the 2024 campaign, but an actual timetable for his return remains undisclosed. In the meantime, Jerome Ford, D'Onta Foreman and Pierre Strong figure to handle the bulk of backfield reps at practice, with Nyheim Hines (knee) also working his way back from the active/non-football injury list.

Impact Chubb didn't do any on-field work during OTAs or minicamp and declined to put a timetable on his return back in June, but the four-time Pro Bowler continues to make progress in his recovery with the start of training camp approaching, as veterans report for Cleveland on July 23. The 28-year-old suffered a season-ending ACL, MCL and meniscus knee injury Week 2 last year, requiring separate surgeries to repair his MCL on Sept. 29, then his ACL on Nov. 14. When Chubb suffered a similar injury to the same knee at Georgia he didn't miss a single game in the Bulldogs' following season, but at that time his ACL wasn't torn. It still remains to be seen whether Chubb will be available for the start of training camp as even a limited participant, or whether he'll be on the field Week 1 versus Dallas, but the Browns are optimistic he'll be fully healthy and suiting up at some point during the 2024 campaign. Cleveland has depth to lean if Chubb isn't able to play early, as the team added bruiser D'Onta Foreman and pass-catching specialist Nyheim Hines (knee) to a backfield already housing Jerome Ford and Pierre Strong.
