Who Should I Start? Chuba Hubbard or Breece Hall

Monday, October 28, 2:43 AM

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard recorded his worst fantasy outing since Week 1 in the Panthers' 28-14 loss to the Denver Broncos. Hubbard finished the day with 15 carries for 56 yards and two receptions for 15 yards. He did not reach the end zone. While still the featured back in Carolina, Hubbard has been trending down in recent weeks as he has recorded progressively fewer points since his Week 3 explosion against Las Vegas. Still, this is his first sub-10-point performance since the season opener. Rookie running back Jonathon Brooks (knee) completed his first whole week of practice in the ramp-up to this game, indicating his debut should be on the horizon. Hubbard should remain Carolina's primary back if Brooks doesn't suit up for Week 9's matchup against the Saints.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball 16 times for 80 yards and caught one of his three targets for nine yards in a 25-22 loss to the New England Patriots in Week 8. Hall turned in a solid game on the ground but saw Braelon Allen vulture a short touchdown from him while also siphoning away 12 carries in the close loss. Hall's output in the passing game also comes as a disappointment after he racked up 11 catches for 159 yards in his previous two games. He will be a solid RB1 in fantasy heading into a Week 9 Thursday night matchup against the Houston Texans.
