Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb had to be carted off the field after suffering a horrific-looking injury against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night.

The Browns were down 7-3 to the Steelers and had 1st-and-goal from the Pittsburgh eight-yard line. They handed the ball to Chubb, who rushed up the middle and was brought down around the three.

Some teammates tried to help Chubb up, but he declined. The Browns running back’s leg had been planted and got bent in a 90-degree angle at his left knee.

Chubb was carted off the field and ruled out for the game with a knee injury.

ABC chose not to show a replay because the injury was so gruesome. But one replay did circulate online. You can view it here, but beware of its graphic nature.

Minkah Fitzpatrick dived into Chubb’s left knee to make the tackle. Fitzpatrick also received some attention for his injury.
