Nick Chubb
2025 Season Outlooks
The Texans signed Chubb in May after starter Joe Mixon was discovered to be dealing with ankle and foot problems. Mixon's injury isn't considered serious, so there's a possibility Chubb won't have to play for Mixon because of it. But Chubb is absolutely in the mix for at least a little playing time in Houston assuming he looks okay after coming back from another major leg injury. His 3.3 yards per carry last year was a career low and Chubb never topped 60 total yards in a single game, despite seeing at least 16 touches in three games. He is at best a late-rounder who could provide some Fantasy insurance for those who take Mixon much earlier.
Chubb signed with the Texans during the offseason. Once one of the league's best rushers, Chubb has been riddled by injuries over the past two seasons. He missed all but two games in 2023 due to a major knee injury and, after returning for eight games in 2024, a broken foot cost him the final three games of the season. Chubb was not his usual, elite self when active last season, averaging 3.3 yards per carry while playing only 40% of Cleveland's offensive snaps. Now more than a year removed from the knee injury, perhaps Chubb can get back on track in 2025, but that will be a tough road at age 29 and without much contribution as a receiver. Joe Mixon will miss, at least, four games to open 2025, so Chubb has a shot at flex value during that team. He's worth a late flier.
