Availability
Chuba Hubbard (hamstring) is off of the injury report ahead of Week 1's matchup against the Chicago Bears.
Fantasy Impact
Hubbard was battling a hamstring injury earlier this offseason, but it's no longer an issue for him and he carries no injury designation ahead of Week 1. He will likely split work with Jonathan Brooks (groin) in the season opener, which hurts the fantasy outlook for both of them.
Chuba Hubbard (hamstring) is week-to-week with a hamstring injury per HC Dave Canales. He is expected to play in Week 1.
Fantasy Impact
While it sounds like Hubbard should be good to go for the season opener, he could still be limited following a multi-week absence. With that said, it’s now wheels up for Jonathon Brooks, who’s now going to see his ADP rise yet again.
Chuba Hubbard will play in the Panthers preseason game on Saturday against the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Hubbard is unlikely to see many snaps. The Panthers are also expected to play Jonathon Brooks.
Chuba Hubbard ran for 10 yards on five carries in the Panthers 16-14 loss against the Buccaneers. He also caught 2-of-2 targets for seven yards receiving.
Fantasy Impact
Hubbard and Rico Dowdle were both completely shut down on the ground. Despite the loss, the Panthers still clinched the NFC South with the Falcons win over the Saints on Sunday. Carolina will host a Rams team next weekend who Hubbard had some success against earlier this season.
Chuba Hubbard ran for 12 yards on four carries in the Panthers 27-10 loss against the Seahawks. He also caught 3-of-3 targets for six yards receiving.
Fantasy Impact
Hubbard lost a crucial fumble with the game tied 3-3 in the third quarter. Rico Dowdle should remain the lead back heading into Week 18 against the Bucs.
