In a very classy move, Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski drove out to running back Nick Chubb’s house after the Browns beat the Titans on Sunday to deliver a game ball.
Chubb, who is out for the season after a severe knee injury, missed Sunday’s 27-3 rout. To be clear, the Browns throttled the Titans. The Titans only had 94 yards of total offense, and the team’s offensive line gave up five back-breaking sacks, including 3.5 sacks to Myles Garrett.
After the game, Stefanski addressed the locker room, saying, “The guy that we don’t have right this minute with us — but he’s always with us — is number 24. He’s getting this game ball because he’s so important to this team.”

Then, Stefanski kept his word by driving the ball to Chubb’s house, according to cleveland.com’s Mary Kay Cabot.
When asked about Stefanski’s classy gesture, Browns safety Juan Thornhill took a moment to appreciate his head coach.
“It was pretty cool that coach actually kept Nick [Chubb] in his thoughts and gave him that game ball,” Thornhill said.
