The Cleveland Browns expect running back Nick Chubb to return to practice this upcoming week and are hopeful he will be eligible for next Sunday's game against the Houston Texans, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Chubb missed more than a month after suffering an MCL sprain at the start of October.

The veteran was the NFL's second-leading rusher with 335 yards through four weeks.

Kareem Hunt and sophomore D'Ernest Johnson carried the backfield workload in Chubb's absence. Hunt's tied for fifth in rushing yards with 529.
