Chuba Hubbard News
Saturday, September 19, 6:50 PM
Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard had a highly productive game in his team's 59-37 Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears, recording 10 carries for 49 yards and a touchdown and three catches for 38 yards and a touchdown on three targets. Hubbard likely would have seen more work on the ground, but the Panthers were chasing points for most of the game before it devolved into a blowout in the fourth quarter. Perhaps most encouragingly for fantasy managers, Hubbard played 48 snaps against the Bears, while Panthers RB2 Jonathon Brooks played just 13. In Week 2, Carolina will take on an Atlanta Falcons defense that allowed just 58 rushing yards to the Pittsburgh Steelers in its season opener. However, Atlanta will be starting its third-string quarterback, Cooper Rush. If the Panthers can get out to an early lead, Hubbard could see plenty of work in a favorable game script. All in all, Hubbard profiles as a solid RB2 option for fantasy managers in Week 2.

Blake Corum News
Monday, September 21, 8:30 PM
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum rushed for 79 yards on 12 carries during Monday's Week 2 win over the New York Giants. He also converted his lone target into a 13-yard reception. For the second week in a row, Corum was nearly as involved as teammate Kyren Williams. Both players rushed 12 times on Monday, and they had similar results, with Williams averaging 7.1 yards per carry and Corum averaging 6.6 yards per carry. This level of efficiency is nothing new, as Corum posted 5.1 YPC last season and 5.4 YPC in Week 1. The 25-year-old lacks receiving upside, and he hasn't scored a touchdown yet this year. Nevertheless, he has demonstrated a very encouraging floor as a ball-carrier, and he's a safe bet for at least 10-12 carries per game. Corum will continue to have RB3/flex appeal for Week 3 against the Denver Broncos.
