The Facts: The knee injury suffered by Chubb is not considering career-ending, with initial tests revealing the running back only tore his MCL, sources tell ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Diehards Line:
Sources tell Schedfter that while Chubb's ACL was stretched on the play, doctors do not believe that ligament is torn. Surgery is likely to happen this week and sources tell Schefter the hope is that more damage is not found. Chubb's recovery timeline is expected to be 6-8 months, sources said. "I never would bet against Nick Chubb," said one source. Chubb injured his left knee after being hit following a five-yard gain in the second quarter of Monday night's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
