Early years
Chubb attended Cedartown High School in Cedartown, Georgia, where he was a two-sport star in both football and track. In football, he led the state of Georgia in rushing yards with 2,721 with 38 touchdowns as a junior. As a senior, he had 2,690 yards and 41 touchdowns. He finished his high school career with 6,983 rushing yards and 102 rushing touchdowns.
As a standout track & field athlete, Chubb competed from 2011 to 2015 in events ranging from the 100-meters to the shot put. At the 2013 4A Sectionals, he took fifth place in the long jump event with a leap of 6.85 meters (22 ft, 4 in). At the 2014 4A Sectionals, he won the shot put event, recording a top-throw of 17.05 meters (55 ft, 8in), and earned second-place finishes in both the 100-meter dash, with a time of 10.69 seconds (setting a school record), and the 200-meter dash, with a time of 21.83 seconds. He captured the state title in the shot put at the 2014 Class AAAA with a throw of 16.77 meters (55 ft).
Chubb was ranked by both Rivals.com and Scout.com as a four-star recruit. In June 2013, he committed to the University of Georgia to play college football under head coach Mark Richt.
College career
Chubb entered his true freshman season as a backup to starter and future NFL running back Todd Gurley. After Gurley was suspended, Chubb took over as the starter. In his first start, he rushed for 143 yards on 38 carries. The next game, he rushed for 202 yards and two touchdowns on 30 carries. In the 2014 Belk Bowl, Chubb broke the bowl game record with 266 rushing yards and was named the Belk Bowl MVP. Chubb finished his freshman season with 1,547 rushing yards, good for second in the SEC, despite starting just eight games. After the Alabama game on October 3, 2015, he tied with Herschel Walker with 13 consecutive 100 yard games. However, on October 10, 2015, Nick Chubb suffered a leg injury, preventing him from beating the record. Due to this injury, he missed the 2015 season but returned for the 2016 season under new head coach Kirby Smart. As the 2016 season progressed, it was thought that Chubb would enter the 2017 NFL Draft, but Chubb decided to return in 2017 for his senior season with the Bulldogs.
