Fast starts have propelled surprising Panthers to 2-0 record

The Carolina Panthers are using fast starts to start fast this season
SEPTEMBER 20, 2021 • Associated Press
Chuba Hubbard - Gets eight carries Hubbard rushed eight times for 10 yards in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Saints.
Impact Hubbard was handed a decent workload despite Christian McCaffrey finishing with 29 touches. However, Hubbard playing a quarter of Carolina's 76 overall offensive snaps came partially as a result of McCaffrey missing a couple drives while dealing with cramps, Joseph Person of The Athletic reports. After hardly getting anything going with his carries Sunday, Hubbard will hope to make a bigger impact if called upon in Thursday's upcoming game versus the Texans.

Giving McCaffrey 30 touches per game isn't sustainable for Panthers. Here's a solution Rookie running back Chuba Hubbard could take some of the load off the Panthers’ Christian McCaffrey.
SEPTEMBER 19, 2021 • CHARLOTTEOBSERVER.COM
Chuba Hubbard - Hauls in two passes Hubbard caught both his targets for four yards and returned a kickoff for 21 yards in Sunday's 19-14 win over the Jets.
Impact Hubbard played 24 snaps on special teams but just seven on offense in his regular-season debut. The rookie fourth-rounder could struggle to see the field as long as superstar Christian McCaffrey is healthy, but it's at least encouraging that he hauled in a couple of passes in his brief involvement Sunday.
SEPTEMBER 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Chuba Hubbard - Likely to return kicks Hubbard is anticipated to serve as the Panthers' kickoff returner, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.
Impact Hubbard took back kickoffs in his freshman season at Oklahoma State and will now apparently be given the opportunity in his opening NFL campaign. That role would give Hubbard extra chances to flash his big-play ability, as Christian McCaffrey's presence atop the tailback depth chart could restrict his offensive snaps. Carolina's recent signing of Royce Freeman gives Hubbard fresh veteran competition to back up McCaffrey as well, so it'll be interesting to see how the team's backfield plays are divided early on.

SEPTEMBER 1, 2021 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM
Chuba Hubbard - Garners large workload Hubbard rushed 10 times for 35 yards and caught three of four targets for 15 yards in Friday night's 34-9 preseason win over the Steelers.
Impact Hubbard started at tailback and led the Panthers in touches, but a dropped pass put a small damper on his evening. The rookie endured a few miscues while also making a few big plays during the preseason, so consistency will be key as Hubbard prepares to serve as Christian McCaffrey's backup in the upcoming campaign.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Chuba Hubbard - Starting preseason Week 3 Hubbard is slated to start Friday's preseason contest versus the Steelers, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.
Impact With all of Christian McCaffrey (healthy scratch), Reggie Bonnafon (undisclosed) and Rodney Smith (undisclosed) unavailable, Hubbard should be afforded plenty of run with the rest of the No. 1 offense. Through two exhibitions, Hubbard, a rookie fourth-rounder, has turned 16 carries into 104 yards and hauled in three of six targets for 31 yards.

Panthers playing it safe with McCaffrey in the preseason

Carolina Panthers coach Matt Rhule is playing it safe when it comes to Christian McCaffrey’s playing time in the preseason
AUGUST 23, 2021 • Associated Press
Chuba Hubbard - Leads team in touches Hubbard rushed nine times for 24 yards and caught both his targets for 29 yards in Saturday's 20-3 preseason loss to the Ravens.
Impact Hubbard played nearly half of Carolina's offensive snaps, leading the team's skill-position players in touches. In the process, he again flashed his big-play ability, going for 29 yards on a reception during the first quarter. That, of course, came after Hubbard ripped off a 59-yard run in his preseason debut. It wasn't all pretty for Hubbard on Saturday, though, as he couldn't punch in two handoffs from the one-yard line to begin the game, and then fumbled later on. The Panthers fortunately recovered his miscue, but Hubbard nonetheless will be eager to cement his role as Christian McCaffrey's backup with a strong overall showing in Friday's preseason finale versus the Steelers.

Chuba Hubbard - Competing for backup job Hubbard has been competing with veteran Reggie Bonnafon for the Panthers' backup tailback job during training camp, Joseph Person of The Athletic reports.
Impact Hubbard was selected in the fourth round after a productive college career at Oklahoma State. He wasn't used often in the passing game, however, and has drawn mixed reviews in that department through training camp thus far. After Bonnafon played just two games due to injury last season, it'll be interesting to see whether he or the rookie Hubbard becomes superstar Christian McCaffrey's top understudy prior to Week 1.
