Nick Chubb Won't Return on Sunday Night Due to Rib Injury

Sunday, December 7, 10:39 PM

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb (rib) suffered a rib injury in the first half of the Sunday night game against the Kansas City Chiefs and has been ruled out for the rest of the contest, according to KPRC 2 Sports' Aaron Wilson. Before getting hurt, Chubb had just one rushing attempt for three yards. The 29-year-old was not targeted in the passing game. Rookie Woody Marks, who had already taken over Houston's backfield in the absence of Joe Mixon (ankle, foot), hasn't been very efficient on the ground against the Chiefs, but he was able to haul in a short touchdown pass in the first quarter. Regardless of whether Chubb is able to return for a Week 15 game against the Arizona Cardinals, Marks should be Houston's RB1 the rest of the season. If Chubb can't make it back next week, Dare Ogunbowale would likely operate as the RB2 for the Texans behind Marks.
