Heading into the 2024 NFL season, most fantasy football managers were excited at the prospects of Carolina Panthers second-round rookie RB Jonathon Brooks, looking at his teammate Chuba Hubbard as a mere roadblock to his potential production once healthy. What they didn’t expect was that Hubbard would … actually be good. Like, really good.
Hubbard ranks sixth among all RBs this season with 1,195 rushing yards and is one of just 10 RBs with double-digit rushing scores. Given his use as a workhorse and the recent upward trend of the Panthers’ offense, it seems safe to say (knock on wood) that Hubbard is bound to be a league winner. Find out just how high Hubbard landed in our team’s Week 17 running back rankings for full-PPR scoring formats.
