VIDEO: Georgia's Nick Chubb dominates rehab from knee injury
It's only been four months since Georgia's Nick Chubb suffered a gruesome knee injury against Tennessee, but it appears the star running back is ahead of schedule on his rehab judging by a treadmill video posted earlier in the week.
Chubb tore multiple ligaments in his knee, the most significant of which was the PCL, but appears to be in fine form as he sprints on a manual treadmill.

Chubb is one of the premier rushers in the country and his return to full health will be key in Kirby Smart's first year as Bulldogs coach.
After a breakout freshman season in which he racked up 1,547 yards rushing and 14 touchdowns, the sophomore once again was dominating defenses to the tune of 747 yards and seven scores prior to injury. The 5-foot-10, 220-pounder broke the 100-yard mark in 13 straight games prior to his premature exit against Tennessee.
Georgia opens the 2016 season on Sept. 3 against North Carolina.
