The return of running back Nick Chubb will wait at least another week as the Cleveland Browns have ruled him out for their Week 6 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Chubb was taken off of the Physically Unable to Perform list last week, opening his 21-day window to return to the 53-man roster. Now 14 days into that window, it can be assumed that Chubb will make his return to the field next week at home against the Cincinnati Bengals. If he does not, then Chubb's season will be over.
The star running back is not the only player ruled out, however, as five others will also sit out in this matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Who are they?
Here are all six players the Browns have ruled out this Sunday as they hit the road for Philadelphia:
