How Panthers’ running back Chuba Hubbard is working on turning a weakness into a strength
New York TimesCHARLOTTE, N.C. — More than an hour after practice wrapped up Sunday, Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard and tight end Tommy Tremble were still catching balls fired at them from a JUGS machine. “That’s really all it is.” This has been the post-practice routine for Hubbard, Tremble and wide receiver Terrace Marshall — another 2021 draftee — since their rookie season. “I can’t wait to give Chuba those opportunities to really champion those guys that bring that kind of toughness.” Hubbard’s tough running last year resulted in 59 rushing first downs, the third-highest in team history and tied for fifth-most in the NFL in 2023. Yeah, you can say that.” Tremble had a similar description of Hubbard’s running style, saying he runs like every play might be his last.
