Lets hope this is just BS.

    My first thought was, “Who predicted this?”

    Trey Wingo, on the Carman show. He’s basing his prediction on Chubb’s contract running out and the $16+ million cap hit he’d carry.

    I guess it’s possible, but Chubb’s contribution - hopefully for the upcoming season anyway - is absolutely worth the money.

    I know how people feel about running backs, but I truly feel Nick Chubb is one of the special ones. I don’t think he’s going to drop off, rather have a more extended career like some of the other greats. Rarely should a RB get a third contract in this NFL but we’ll probably look back and say how obvious his greatness was.

    Wouldn’t it be great to have someone of Nick’s calibre finish a career with our team for once. I’ve been a fan of the NFL since the late eighties and seen so many stellar players move on, and it seems to me to be increasingly common.

    Anyway, thanks to @ctang1@lemmy.world for the heads-up about this community. (Maybe I’ll stick around for a bit, but I’ve an annoying habit of dropping off the radar quickly - or annually - often).

    Edit: late eighties
