Browns' Nick Chubb enters concussion protocol

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb entered the concussion protocol on Tuesday following an unfortunate collision with a teammate during a Monday practice.

As mentioned by ESPN's Jake Trotter, Cleveland linebacker Mack Wilson tackled Chubb using a horse-collar technique that injured the ball-carrier. Tight end David Njoku immediately came to Chubb's defense after the incident:

Head coach Kevin Stefanski also admonished Wilson after practice. Wilson addressed the matter via Twitter on Monday evening: 

Chubb accumulated 1,494 rushing yards during the 2019 season, good for second in the league behind only Tennessee Titans back Derrick Henry (1,540) in that category. The 24-year-old selected by Cleveland in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft has notched eight touchdown runs in each of his first two pro campaigns.
