Known to many as Nick Chubb, a name that echoes through the stadiums, to others, it conjures images far darker and more sinister. It was on a fog-laden evening, when fans had retired home, only shadows of their cheers lingered in the air, that we first heard the eerie whispers involving this gridiron hero.The local legends spoke of a cursed play, one that had taken place years before Chubb’s rise to fame.
