Nick Chubb

"Obviously, he's a popular player in the locker room and with the fan base, but the Browns will have to determine what they think Chubb has left as a player -- and he will have to determine where he feels the Browns are headed and how he might fit in that plan," Jackson adds.

He'll spend another offseason recovering from a season-ending injury. Chubb, who will be 29 in two weeks, will be an unrestricted free agent this spring and should get interest from teams looking to make the veteran a part of a timeshare backfield.
