Jim Brown, Marion Motley, Greg Pruitt, and Earnest Byner. These are just four members of the Cleveland Browns‘ historic talents at running back. Since the original Browns’ inception in 1942, the franchise has had amazing talent at the position. The Browns have been built on a staunch rushing attack for decades, and have tried to recapture that many times since 1999.
But, Browns haven’t really had anything to cheer for on the offensive side of the ball since the team came back to the NFL. Despite being back in the league for nearly two decades, the Browns haven’t been able to conjure up a powerful rushing attack until recently, with the arrival of rookie Nick Chubb.
