A video surfaced in which Nick Chubb was seen squatting with 610 lbs. It was a display of immense brute strength, and the fans on Twitter were amazed after seeing it.
They even went on to say that Derrick Henry couldn’t lift this much and do squats. Henry himself is known for his powerful and unique workouts in the offseason. Currently, Derrick Henry is arguably the best running back in the league, but in the gym, Chubb might edge ahead of him.
