Bradley Austin Chubb was born on June 24, 1996. He is an American football outside linebacker for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League (NFL).
He formally committed to attending North Carolina State University on June 24, 2013. Chubb had also received offers from Duke, West Virginia, Wake Forest, East Carolina, and other institutions. As a rookie, Chubb only occasionally participated, mostly on special teams.
He switched positions before his sophomore year, going from outside linebacker to defensive end, and by the time the season began, he had taken the place of the starting lineup.
In the 2018 NFL Draft, Chubb was projected to go in the first round. Various estimates indicated that he would either go to the Indianapolis Colts at choice number six or within the top five (as high as first to the Cleveland Browns). Chubb listed Von Miller and Khalil Mack as guys who he models his play after during the 2018 NFL Scouting Combine.
On April 30, 2021, the Broncos picked up Chubb’s fifth-year option, guaranteeing him a salary of $12.72 million for the 2022 campaign. After having ankle surgery, he was put on injured reserve on September 22, 2021.
On November 27, he was put into service. On November 1, 2022, the Broncos dealt running back Chase Edmonds, a 2023 first-round pick (a San Francisco pick), and a 2024 fourth-round pick to the Miami Dolphins in exchange for Chubb and a 2025 fifth-round pick. He subsequently agreed to a five-year, $110 million extension with a guaranteed $63.2 million.
How Good Is Bradley Chubb?
He’s a very good pass rusher, best when paired with another very good pass rusher. He has trouble staying on the field and staying consistent. A bit of a wild card in that regard. You’ll never find a game where he disappears, which means a lot. He’s also received nothing but glowing reviews from his teammates, coaches, and the fan base in Denver. Miami added a consummate professional.
