The addition of Chubb also means the Texans will face a roster crunch at the running back position soon. Chubb will be the fifth running back on a team that just spent a fourth-round pick on adding depth to the backfield, re-signed Dare Ogunbowale earlier in the offseason and signed Mixon to a three-year extension last year.

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 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.
