STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Hubbard has flex upside in Week 1 vs. weak Bears run defense despite 2025 decline.

Despite his poor 2025 efficiency, Hubbard should still command a sizable portion of the rushing attack to open the 2026 season, giving him flex value with some upside for Week 1. Jonathon Brooks is expected to lead the backfield, but Hubbard's role remains substantial. The Bears' run defense struggled to close last season, allowing the highest rushing success rate, sixth-most yards before contact per attempt, and 11th-highest EPA per rush in Weeks 12-18, presenting a favorable matchup.
