Chuba Hubbard is returning to practice shortly and remains on track to play in Week 1. In the last playoff game, Hubbard scored two touchdowns on 17 touches, dusting Rico Dowdle after he returned to pre-injury form. When healthy in 2024, Hubbard was half-PPR's per-game RB12 on RB7 usage, while being the RB4 in rush yards over expected (+24%). Carolina signed him to a four-year, $33 million extension during that stint.

Hubbard's 2024 form and extension make him the clear Panthers lead back.

Chuba Hubbard is returning to practice and on track for Week 1; when healthy in 2024, he was RB12 on RB7 usage and RB4 in rush yards over expected (+24%), and the Panthers signed him to a four-year, $33 million extension during that stint. The bar to clear Hubbard is higher than Brooks or other backup options realize, making him the clear lead back.
