Jerome Ford Uplifts Browns Fans Despite Nick Chubb Injury, Steelers Loss
Things looked bleak when the Cleveland Browns lost star running back Nick Chubb to a devastating knee injury in the first half of their Monday Night Football game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
However, second-year running back Jerome Ford was a bright spot for Cleveland in a 26-22 loss that dropped the team to 1-1 this season. Ford rushed for 106 yards on 16 carries, including a 69-yard burst that helped set up a touchdown in the third quarter.
Ford would've found the end zone himself if not for a chase-down tackle by Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. The Browns were in control until Deshaun Watson lost a fumble in the fourth quarter that was scooped up and returned by Steelers star T.J. Watt for the go-ahead touchdown.

Still, Ford did enough to earn praise from fans online, even in the loss:
The Browns likely will reassess their situation once it's determined how much time Chubb will miss. However, it's clear that the team has a capable ball-carrier in Ford, who had 48 career rushing yards entering Monday's game.
Ford will get another opportunity to show his skills when Cleveland returns to action in Week 3 against the Tennessee Titans.
