Not a lot of options. Could possibly get some silicone around each nub where it meets the top side of the foot board. Wait for it to cure. Then put some more around each nub on the floor board underside. Wait for cure. Or just go buy some new rubbers. The ones you have have seen their day.

Only adhesive that comes to mind that may work is shoe/boot glue. That stuff is amazing. Probably wont last forever, but only stuff I would try.

Mine are doing the same thing and you can’t fix them. Just buy a new set at HD.
