Chuba Hubbard Sidelined A Second Straight Day
2 years agoCarolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard (ankle) missed practice for the second day in a row on Thursday. He's dealing with a minor sprained ankle that he suffered in the Week 7 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the second half. After the game, the Panthers coaching staff said that Hubbard probably could have gone back into the game, insinuating that the injury wasn't very serious. But two missed practices later and he's looking like a real question mark for Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons unless he returns to practice on Friday. If the 23-year-old is out or limited in any way on Sunday, D'Onta Foreman would have a higher fantasy ceiling as the team's lead back now that Christian McCaffrey is in San Francisco.
