June 9 (UPI) -- The Houston Texans are expected to sign former Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb. Sources told NFL Network, ESPN and The Athletic on Sunday night that Chubb is expected to sign the one-year deal if he passes a physical on Monday in Houston.

There are only so many jobs to go around, so the Texans' pursuit of Nick Chubb could result in a target making their way to Dallas.

The Houston Texans' run offense was squarely in the middle of the pack last season. This year? It seems the Texans are trying to get a little closer to the top. Houston is close to signing free agent running back Nick Chubb, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network and NFL.com.
