Chuba Hubbard News
Wednesday, October 28, 10:02 AM
Carolina running back Chuba Hubbard is set up for success in the team's Week 8 Thursday night game against Green Bay. The Packers have struggled to slow opposing backs so far, allowing 115 rushing yards per contest. Like most of his offensive teammates, Hubbard will be looking to bounce back after a rough showing in Week 7 against Tampa Bay. The RB had just 33 rushing yards on seven attempts, while catching four of his five targets for 27 yards. Hubbard had been over 100 total yards in the three contests before that, so he'll be looking to get back on track in Week 8. While his matchup is favorable, Hubbard will be running behind a couple of new offensive linemen as Taylor Moton (fibula) and Damien Lewis (knee) are each out, so expectations for Hubbard need to be tempered a bit. Hubbard sits ninth among fantasy RBs in our RotoBaller Week 8 rankings, so he's one to be starting in all leagues.

Ashton Jeanty News
Sunday, October 25, 4:50 PM
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty was unable to get anything going on the ground during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Jeanty put together his worst performance of the season on the ground. The rookie back carried the ball eight times for 15 yards in the loss. He was able to salvage his fantasy value by hauling in all eight of his targets for 61 yards and a touchdown through the air. Jeanty has heavily struggled on the ground lately, but his work in the receiving game has saved him. Jeanty has seen six or more targets in four straight games. He should remain a solid RB2 option as long as he continues to see a high volume in the passing game next week.
