Browns' Nick Chubb: 'There's Really Nothing' NFL RBs Can Do About State of Contracts

One of the major talking points from the NFL offseason has been star running backs and organization's refusal to pay them big money.

Saquon Barkley and Josh Jacobs are among the latest top rushers who failed to secure long-term deals from their respective organizations, instead each being hit with the franchise tag.
