Chubb is expected to head the Cleveland backfield for the foreseeable future after Carlos Hyde was traded to the Jaguars on Friday in exchange for a 2019 fifth-round pick.
Duke Johnson remains on hand to handle change-of-pace duties, but the departure of Hyde paves the way for Chubb to see an immediate and significant increase in carries. He becomes a must-add for any fantasy player looking to add depth at running back. Chubb had made the most of his limited role behind Hyde over the first six weeks of the season, carrying 16 times for 173 yards and two scores.
