Chuba Hubbard Could Serve As Carolina's Short-Yardage RB
1 year agoCarolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard could serve as the team's short-yardage back in 2023, according to the Athletic's Joe Person. Person listed "power back" as one of the Panthers' roster holes heading into training camp as Carolina doesn't really have a big, bruising running back on the roster. That could open up short yardage and goal-line work for Hubbard, who had several productive games for Carolina at the tail end of the 2022 season. Of course, the Panthers could still add an unsigned veteran for the role but Hubbard could have some flex value in fantasy if he does end up seeing most of the goal-line carries in 2023.
