4) Chuba Hubbard–Carolina Panthers
The Canadian running back who attended Oklahoma State, will get plenty of playing time in the weeks ahead with Christian McCaffrey out with a hamstring injury. On Thursday, Hubbard had 11 rushes for 52 yards, along with three catches for 27 yards. Hubbard now has 62 rushing yards and 31 receiving yards after three games.
