Panthers Don't Want To Move Chuba Hubbard

Wednesday, October 29, 9:09 AM

Carolona Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard is not expected to be moved at the trade deadline, according to Joseph Person of The Athletic. Despite some speculation regarding Hubbard's role after head coach Dave Canales indicated that they will ride the hot hand with Rico Dowdle moving forward, the 26-year-old is expected to remain with the team through the trade deadline. It's been a disappointing season for Hubbard after a career year last season, when he rushed for 1,195 yards and 10 touchdowns on 250 carries. He's been unable to replicate that sort of efficiency in 2025, averaging just 3.6 yards per carry on 79 carries in the six games he's started. With Dowdle expected to take the bulk of the work now, Hubbard is likely best left on the bench for their Week 9 matchup against the Packers.

Ashton Jeanty Poised For Feature Role In Week 7 Clash With Chiefs

Friday, October 17, 1:38 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty is expected to handle a heavy workload in Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs. With the Chiefs' offense catching fire in recent weeks, the Raiders will likely try to control the tempo by leaning on Jeanty and the ground game. The rookie has thrived in outside zone concepts, an area where Kansas City's defense has struggled, setting him up for a potentially productive day. The Chiefs rank 19th in rushing yards allowed per game (119.2), creating an ideal matchup for Jeanty to exploit. Expect the Raiders to establish the run early and often, keeping Patrick Mahomes off the field while feeding their emerging backfield workhorse. Jeanty profiles as a strong RB2 play in fantasy lineups and could deliver one of his best performances of the season on Sunday.
