BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Chuba Hubbard has not elicited the same level of conversation as several other backs who are operating as the clear RB2s on their own teams. However, Hubbard has already accumulated 110 snaps during Carolina’s first four matchups.
Hubbard has now carried 26 times, generated 119 yards on the ground, and is averaging 4.7 yards per attempt. He has also run 33 routes, garnered 11 targets, and generated 57 yards as a receiving weapon.
#Panthers Week 4 RB Usage
- Miles Sanders: 43% snaps, 13 carries, 11 routes, 3 targets (32 yds)
- Chuba Hubbard: 54% snaps, 14 carries, 15 routes, 2 targets (53 yds)— Michael F. Florio (@MichaelFFlorio) October 1, 2023
That includes his numbers when the Panthers hosted Minnesota in Week 4. Miles Sanders was contending with a groin issue, which provided a path for Hubbard to operate with an expanded workload.
Hubbard led Carolina’s backfield in snaps (38), rushing attempts (14), and rushing yards (41) versus the Vikings and collected both of his targets. Sanders played on 32 snaps, carried 13 times, and was limited to 19 yards on the ground. He also captured all three of his targets.
Hubbard has yet to eclipse the threshold of standalone value. However, he should be rostered in all leagues. He has commandeered a weekly role in Carolina’s attack and would become a valuable roster asset if Sanders is unavailable during the upcoming weeks.
