Panthers' Chuba Hubbard Day-to-Day With Calf Injury After Missing Wednesday Work

No timetable was provided, with Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne and DeeJay Dallas positioned to handle carries.

Overview

  • Head coach Dave Canales said Hubbard is day-to-day after a calf issue kept him out of Wednesday’s walk-through and the media-viewed portion of practice.
  • Canales said the calf “needs more treatment” and offered no return timeline beyond the day-to-day designation.
  • Hubbard played through the same injury last week after being listed as questionable, logging 10 carries for 49 yards against the Patriots.
  • Through early October, he has 53 rushing attempts for 217 yards and 13 receptions for 94 yards with two touchdowns.
  • If Hubbard cannot go this week, Carolina has Rico Dowdle, rookie Trevor Etienne and recently promoted DeeJay Dallas available at running back.
