From the article

Hubbard collapsed in 2025 after his 2024 breakout, finishing as RB40 in fantasy points per game despite dealing with a calf injury. He lost his starting job to Rico Dowdle during the season. Among 49 qualifying backs, he ranked dead last in missed tackle rate and explosive run rate (zero explosive runs) and 47th in yards after contact per attempt. The source explicitly states 'I'll be avoiding Hubbard in drafts this year' and notes that if Jonathon Brooks is fully healthy, he could easily become the backfield leader.
