Chuba Hubbard Expected to Land on IR
Chuba Hubbard, running back for the Carolina Panthers, is expected to be placed on injured reserve due to a calf and knee injury. Although the injury is not considered major, the Panthers, who are out of playoff contention, want to avoid exacerbating the issue. In his absence, Raheem Blackshear is likely to take on a larger role, with other players from the practice squad also being considered for elevation. Additionally, Hubbard has been performing well this season, rushing for 818 yards in 10 games, but will now share the backfield with rookie Jonathon Brooks as the team looks to get him involved.

Miles Sanders out with shoulder injury, Chuba Hubbard to start
Miles Sanders, running back for the Carolina Panthers, will be out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a shoulder injury. Sanders had been dealing with a groin injury and picked up the shoulder injury last week. With Sanders out, Chuba Hubbard will step in as the lead back for the Panthers. Sanders and Hubbard have been averaging a combined 19.2 carries and 7.6 targets per game this season. While Hubbard won't take on all of Sanders' workload, he is expected to receive enough work to be a solid RB2 option in fantasy lineups.
