Fantasy Football Player Notes

From a town of 75,000 people in Sherwood Park, Alberta, Chuba Hubbard has broken out and become a weekly RB1 for fantasy in the NFL. For the second year in a row, the athletic back continues to impress with his versatile skill set. With over 85 total yards in five of his last six games, he has a safe yardage floor along with being the team's lone goal-line back. That said, the Panthers have been struggling over the last three weeks. Scoring 21 points or fewer over that span, they desperately need a get-right game for this offense. Thankfully, the Saints should provide this after allowing Shedeur Sanders to look like a functional QB last week. The Saints are allowing the most fantasy points to opposing RBs this season. As a result, I have Hubbard as a top-five RB in my rankings this week.
