Chuba Hubbard Sees Six Carries In Week 1 Loss

Monday, September 9, 1:50 AM

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard carried the ball six times for just 14 yards in the team's blowout loss to the New Orleans Saints. Hubbard was not involved in the receiving game, seeing zero targets. Hubbard saw just one more carry than running back Miles Sanders, but neither were able to provide much of a spark on the ground. Both running backs were gamescripted out of the matchup early on, with the Panthers finding themselves down by 27 at halftime. Hubbard's usage was encouraging enough to keep him in the mix moving forward, and he can be looked at as an RB3/4 option next week when the Panthers take on the Los Angeles Chargers.

Kenneth Walker III Misses Another Practice On Thursday

Thursday, September 12, 7:34 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (oblique) remained out of practice for the second straight day this week on Thursday. Walker suffered an oblique injury in the Week 1 over the Denver Broncos and is now firmly up in the air to suit up in Week 2 against the New England Patriots. His status for Sunday's game will ultimately come down to whether he can get back onto the practice field on Friday. Still, Walker could be questionable to be active in Week 2, so fantasy managers planning on starting him again this weekend need to formulate a backup plan. Backup Zach Charbonnet would become Seattle's lead back in a plus matchup if Walker is limited or out entirely. Charbonnet should be scooped up off the waiver wire if he's available and you're thin at the RB position. He is currently rostered in only 52% of Yahoo leagues.
