Chubb had four carries for 14 yards and failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 28-16 playoff loss to New England.

Chubb finished up his first season in Houston with 122 carries for 506 rushing yards and three touchdowns. He added 13 catches on 20 targets for 67 yards. Chubb was meant to back up Joe Mixon (foot) but opened the season atop the depth chart before Woody Marks eventually pushed him aside for the lead role. Chubb averaged just 4.4 carries per game over the final seven weeks of the regular season, and the 31-year-old enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.
