Pro Bowl running back Nick Chubb will start the year on the PUP list, which means he'll miss at least the first four games of the season. That clears the way for Ford, who had a breakout season for the Browns last season, running for 813 yards and four touchdowns. He also had 44 catches for 319 yards and three scores. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/bengals/news/watch-nick-chubb-suffers-gruesome-injury-in-browns-monday-night-matchup-with-steelers" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Chubb suffered a gruesome knee injury </a> last September. The Browns took Ford in the fifth-round (156th overall) in the 2022 NFL Draft. He spent two seasons in Cincinnati and ran for 1,319 yards and 19 touchdowns in 2021, helping the Bearcats make the College Football Playoff.
