With Kareem Hunt's 123 carries and 35 receptions up for grabs, Ford, a 2022 5th round pick has a very real opportunity to be a fantasy factor in 2023 as Chubb's backup. After returning 30 kicks last season, and touching the ball only eight times on offense, Ford currently sits as No.2 on the depth chart for Cleveland. Ford brings average NFL measurables and decent college production to the table but would be in line for a huge workload if Chubb were to go down. As long as the Browns don't add a veteran back in camp, Ford is a solid handcuff.

 Jerome Ford a gametime decision for Week 8
Ankle injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Oct 29, 7:10 am
|  | Browns’ RB Jerome Ford, who is listed as questionable for today’s game due to his sprained ankle, wants and intends to play vs. the Seahawks, but Cleveland wants to see how he looks and feels in pre-game warmups before allowing it, per source. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Ford injured his ankle last week and missed practice Wednesday and Thursday before getting in a limited session on Friday. He's listed as Questionable. If he sits, Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong Jr. would share the running back duties with Hunt being the preferred fantasy option. Jordan Wilkins has been elevated from the practice squad in case Ford can't go.
| Jerome Ford likely to miss a week or two
Likely low-grade, high-ankle sprain
By: Doug Orth | Mon Oct 23, 11:30 pm
| | Browns’ RB Jerome Ford - who left Sunday’s win over the Colts with an ankle injury - was diagnosed with what a source described as a “low grade, high ankle” sprain that is expected to sideline him 1-to-2 weeks. (ESPN - Adam Schefter)
FFToday's Take: The Browns' offense keeps taking hits, as Ford will likely join Deshaun Watson and Nick Chubb as players who will likely miss multiple games due to injury. Fantasy managers should consider themselves lucky if Ford only misses two weeks with an injury that can sideline some backs for a month. Although he has been productive for fantasy purposes, Kareem Hunt has not looked any better than he did last season. However, it should be expected to take on the leading role for however long Ford is sidelined while Pierre Strong Jr. assumes Hunt's old role as Ford's complement.
| Browns bring in Kareem Hunt, one-year deal
Depth piece with Nick Chubb out for the year
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Sep 20, 10:46 am
| | Reunion: The #Browns and veteran RB Kareem Hunt have agreed to terms on a one-year deal, per source.
Hunt scored 23 TDs over the past four seasons in Cleveland. Now he’s back - and figures to have a lot of opportunities after Nick Chubb’s season-ending injury. (Tom Pelissero on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: HC Kevin Stefanski already stated that Jerome Ford will be the team's lead back so Hunt will likely slide into the No.2 RB role now that Nick Chubb (knee) is out for the year. Hunt wasn't effective last season (3.8 ypc) but does give the Browns some depth at the position. Ford is projecting like an RB2 moving forward.

HC Kevin Stefanski: "Significant" knee injury
By: Doug Orth | Tue Sep 19, 12:20 am
| | Coach Kevin Stefanski confirms that Nick Chubb is done for the season with a significant knee injury. Awful. (NFL Network - Ian Rapoport)
FFToday's Take: The injury was gruesome enough that the telecast did not want to replay it. There is a distinct possibility Chubb is in the hospital as we speak to make sure all he did was suffer multiple torn ligaments; it was that bad. Without question, this is an injury that could have a significant impact on his ability to play - and certainly, play up to his standard - again. Jerome Ford showed well after his departure and stands to be a highly sought-after waiver-wire addition over the next few days. While it is likely the team will add someone over the next day or two, this figures to be Ford's show until further notice.
