Hubbard showed success in short-yardage situations where the Panthers have struggled; he converted a hard one-yard run on 4th and 1, carried the team to the 1-yard line, and punched in a touchdown on second and goal to regain a Panthers lead in the second quarter. Strong running by Hubbard kept a third-quarter drive alive long enough to get into field goal range, and he managed a nine-yard gain on the next drive despite offensive line injuries.

Hubbard is ranked RB11 for Week 8 against the Packers in Thursday Night Football. The Packers defense has allowed just 3.3 yards per carry and 0.54 yards before contact per rush outside of their game against the Falcons, presenting a tough matchup. The Panthers' best offensive lineman, Damen Lewis, is out, which will impact Hubbard's performance. However, the Packers are losing linebacker depth—Edin Cooper is out for the season with a torn Achilles, and Zire Franklin is expected to miss another game due to the short week. Hubbard doesn't come off the field often and the Panthers are projected for 22 points. The Packers defense is using Brian Flores-coded schemes with unique line-of-scrimmage pressure, but Hubbard has been a top-10 running back (RB10–RB15 usage) all season, warranting continued reliance on his production until something changes.

NegativeProjectionOct 28, 2026Fantasy Points Fantasy Football
By far the most valuable player available in round eight; one of only six most impactful players of the season alongside Matthew Golden, JSN, Kenneth Walker, Jamir Gibbs, and Bijan Robinson; finished as RB1 every single week but one this season. The source notes that championship-winning teams typically roster Hubbard, Warren, Robinson, Gibbs, JSN, and Walker, emphasizing that upside wins championships, not beating ADP. Rest-of-season projection is fringe RB1 to mid-to-high-end RB2 with Bryce Young regression risk, though the source is not actively trying to sell despite overperformance.

Chuba Hubbard averaged 4.7 yards per carry and caught 4 passes on Sunday to keep drives going, but only ran the ball 7 times total due to the Panthers falling quickly behind on the scoreboard. Against the Packers, whose rush defense is middle-of-the-pack statistically, a balanced offensive attack will be critical; the Packers' passing defense is top 10 in yards per pass and yards per game, making ground game involvement essential for the Panthers to stay on schedule.

Hubbard had 12 of the Panthers' 23 back opportunities (52.2%; 13 of 25 true) on 7 carries for 33 yards and 4 catches for 27 yards, down from 30 of 31 in Week 6. He earned 87.5% of first-half back work but had no touch in the fourth quarter and no red-zone carry. Snap share dropped to 61% from 94% in Week 6. In a game Carolina trailed by 27 or more, Hubbard's usage declined significantly despite receiving a growing receiving role (5 targets).

NegativeProjectionOct 27, 2026Mattek Fantasy Football
Ranked in C tier; primary concern is D'Onta Foreman's theoretical return, which will reduce Hubbard's workload; secondary concern is Bryce Young's quarterback volatility—the source notes 'there are more games where we get the bad version of Bryce than the good version of Bryce,' and the bad version produces high sack and turnover rates, creating a low floor for Carolina Panthers running backs in given weeks; despite concerns, Hubbard is 'obviously a guy you'd love to have on your fantasy team.'

The source recommends an average 22.5% FAAB bid on Chuba Hubbard (RB, CAR), noting his role is one to lean into despite the Panthers' Week 7 blowout loss. Hubbard has finished as an RB1 in five of six games this season, commands 72% of rush attempts with a 58% route rate, and the source is not concerned about Jonathon Brooks stealing work given Brooks' injury history. With the Panthers' bye week behind them, Hubbard offers strong positional security.
