2018 NFL Draft: Ranking the Top 10 running backs
By Dana Becker
As part of a two-headed attack in Athens, Nick Chubb recorded three 1,000-yard seasons and scored 44 touchdowns during his Georgia career.
Injuries, though, limited him in 2015 and the emergence of Sony Michels kept him from ever duplicating his freshman year that saw Chubb run for 1,547 yards and add another 213 yards on 18 receptions.
A power-back at 225 pounds, Chubb concluded his run with the Bulldogs having recorded over 5,100 yards from scrimmage with 48 touchdowns against SEC defenses. When he was healthy, there might not have been a better running back in all of college football, but nagging injuries held him down.
When Georgia struggled this year, it came with Chubb struggling. He had just 27 yards in a loss to Auburn and recorded only 25 yards on 18 carries in the national title game defeat to Alabama.
