Cleveland Browns star running back Nick Chubb appeared to suffer a serious leg injury against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday. During the team’s AFC North matchup on prime time, Chubb was rushing to the end zone when he got tackled awkwardly in the second quarter with the Browns in the red zone.
Chubb’s teammates attempted to help him up, but it was clear he knew something was wrong. ESPN did not show a close-up replay due to the nature of the injury.
Joe Buck announced the network would be showing a replay of the injury, and analyst Troy Aikman added “it’s as bad as you can imagine.”
What makes this worse is that this is the same knee Chubb required reconstructive surgery on while at Georgia.
Speaking of that injury, ESPN’s Adam Schefter is being blasted online after he posted that Chubb “dislocated his left knee and tore his MCL, PCL, and LCL with cartilage damage” before he stated this was an injury from 2015.

Fans were rightfully upset.
Before his injury, he had 10 carries for 64 yards.
Players from both teams wished Chubb well before he left the field, and Steelers fans chanted Chubb’s name as he left the field.
