While the Carolina Panthers’ passing game continues to find its rhythm on the shoulders of quarterback Bryce Young, Chuba Hubbard’s versatility as both a runner and receiver gives head coach Dave Canales a weapon capable of dictating the flow of a matchup that could have some fireworks in Week 4 against the New England Patriots.
Hubbard’s role in Carolina has steadily expanded over the past year. Long known for his vision and acceleration as a runner, he’s also grown more comfortable as a pass catcher — something that could prove pivotal against a Patriots defense that just surrendered a standout performance to Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (23 total touches).
