Cleveland Browns activate RB Nick Chubb off COVID-19/reserve list

BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns have activated Nick Chubb off the COVID-19/reserve list, clearing the way for the Pro Bowl running back to return Sunday against the Detroit Lions.

Chubb tested positive for COVID-19 last week, causing him to miss Cleveland's game in New England.

Chubb still leads all NFL running backs with an average of 6.01 yards per carry. He's third overall in rushing with 721 yards to go along with six touchdowns.

The Browns activated backup running back Demetric Felton off the COVID-19/reserve list, as well, on Friday.
