Carolina Panthers fantasy football outlook for Week 15 at Bills

Chuba Hubbard – Carolina Panthers RB

Chuba Hubbard ran 10 times for 33 yards and one touchdown against the Atlanta Falcons for a modest total of 9.30 fantasy points. The rookie has shown some nice flashes, but the Carolina Panthers’ commitment to running the football is wavering from week to week.

It also doesn’t seem like this coaching staff has any interest in using Hubbard as a “Christian McCaffrey-lite” pass catcher. The former Oklahoma State rusher has talent, so hopefully, Matt Rhule and his coaching staff can figure out how to unlock it.

Start or Sit in Week 15?

Buyer Beware.

The Buffalo Bills are a top-10 team against running backs in fantasy football. Simply put, there’s no reliable way of knowing Hubbard will get the volume of touches he needs to be a difference-maker in this game.

If the playoffs have started in your league, think hard about relying on the rookie to help you win this week. Hubbard has the skills, but the Panthers also have Cam Newton and Ameer Abdullah in the backfield to call upon – something that might also limit the fourth-round pick’s production.
