Hubbard ranked 64th of 65 backs in PFF metrics; lost lead role to Dowdle.

Hubbard is coming off a disappointing 2025 campaign in which he battled injury, lost lead-back duties to Rico Dowdle, and ranked 64th among 65 qualified backs in forced missed tackle rate and elusive rating per PFF. He missed a chunk of training camp with a hamstring injury, which opened the door for Jonathon Brooks to earn a larger share of the backfield. The situation is best avoided in Week 1 given the unclear committee dynamics.
