The Cleveland Browns liked what they saw in former Georgia star RB Nick Chubb, selecting him with the No. 35 pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
Now, Chubb has officially signed his first NFL contract, as the team reported via Twitter on Monday afternoon.
As you can see in the post below, Chubb has become the newest Browns running back, following in the footsteps of fellow ex-Bulldog Isaiah Crowell, who is now with the New York Jets:

As the No. 35 overall pick in the draft, Chubb is projected to get a contract worth more than $7.4 million with a signing bonus of nearly $3.5 million (via Sportrac).
Where Chubb stands on the depth chart this season will be determined over the summer, but for now, his contract is official and he can get to work impressing his professional squad.
