Fantasy Footballers on Chuba Hubbard

PodcastPlayers We’re Embarrassed to Love + Jeanty Madness! - Fantasy Football Podcast...August 24, 2026

From the episode

if Chuba is good to go, we'll be running back by committee in week one. I feel like Canales is hard to trust when it comes to how he talks about his running back.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Hubbard faces a committee backfield and is a risky draft pick.

Head coach Dave Canales indicated that if Chuba Hubbard is healthy for Week 1, the Panthers will utilize a running back committee. The source advises against drafting or starting Hubbard, suggesting he is a poor investment compared to Jonathan Brooks.
