Chuba Hubbard a Prime Bounce-Back Candidate Following Panthers' Offseason Moves

Thursday, May 7, 11:10 AM

After logging 1,366 scrimmage yards and 11 touchdowns in 2024, Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard saw his production dip in 2025. Across 15 games, the 26-year-old recorded just 734 scrimmage yards and four scores. Hubbard opened the year as the Panthers RB1, but an early-season injury opened the door for Rico Dowdle to take over the lead rusher role in Carolina. However, Dowdle signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers in March, which could provide Hubbard an opportunity to reassume a three-down role. The Panthers did not add any running backs in the 2026 NFL Draft, leaving the oft-injured Jonathan Brooks and the unproven Trevor Etienne as Hubbard's primary competition. In dynasty formats, Hubbard's stock is rising following Carolina's offseason moves.

Zach Charbonnet Could Return in Early October

Tuesday, June 9, 5:25 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) could make a return to the field earlier than expected. According to Corbin K. Smith, Charbonnet is on track to return in early October. That's encouraging news considering Charbonnet suffered a torn ACL during the divisional round victory over the San Francisco 49ers in mid-January. Typically, these injuries take anywhere from 9 to 12 months to fully heal. He underwent surgery in February, so an October timetable is a little early, but it doesn't seem out of the question. In the meantime, the Seahawks are likely going to lean on rookie Jadarian Price and Emanuel Wilson in the backfield. An early October return date would give Charbonnet more stash value heading into draft season.
