Chuba Hubbard News
Friday, November 13, 3:11 PM
Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard came back down to Earth in Week 9 but still had a respectable RB14 finish after being the RB8 in Week 8. Hubbard's Week 9 finish is his second-worst this year, only beating out his Week 7 performance when he amounted to 11 touches, a complete blowout in which backfield mate Trevor Etienne handled his highest touch count of the year. Clearly, Hubbard has been off to a blazing start this year, and continues to be a reliable fantasy option, scoring 11.6 or more half-PPR points in seven of his eight games so far. He has made a difference both on the ground and through the air, with 15 receptions over the last three games. Hubbard should uphold his stellar reputation in Week 10, when the Panthers face off against a Saints defense that has been susceptible to the run, allowing 133.9 rushing yards per game, the fourth most in the league. Although they haven't given up any rushing touchdowns in the past two weeks, opposing offenses have scored 11 touchdowns on the ground against them this year. Hubbard is a must-start running back as RotoBaller's RB6.

Omarion Hampton News
Sunday, November 8, 8:34 PM
Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton totaled 60 scoreless yards on his 13 carries in the team's 44-22 home loss to the Houston Texans. He was not targeted in the passing game for the first time since Week 1. The second-year pro's box score isn't too useful for fantasy. That said, it's the first time in a few games for LA that a member of the backfield committee separated themselves considerably in the carry total. Hampton's 13 totes nearly matched teammates Kimani Vidal and Keaton Mitchell combined (14). Moreover, Hampton looked explosive on a highlight 32-yard run. It isn't much to go on, but a little bit of touch consolidation here could go a long way for the 23-year-old. Unfortunately, a wait-and-see approach is best for now, but there's at least a little life after a decent workload. Hampton will look to build on the solid outing in Week 10 against a formidable Baltimore Ravens rush defense in primetime.
