10 RB sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 14
By Nick Villano
4. Chuba Hubbard – Carolina Panthers
The Carolina Panthers made some major changes to the offensive structure during the bye week. They fired offensive coordinator Joe Brady. The reports say that head coach Matt Rhule wanted more of a commitment to the running game. Obviously, that definitely makes sense when Christian McCaffrey is in the lineup, but Rhule apparently wants to run the ball when Chuba Hubbard is his starter, too.
Hubbard is the starter for the rest of the season with McCaffrey on the sidelines. CMC is out for the year with yet another injury. This week, Hubbard and the Panthers are taking on the Atlanta Falcons. They’ve allowed more than 1,100 yards on the ground with nine rushing touchdowns. Hubbard is going to have a big week.
3. Chase Edmonds – Arizona Cardinals
This is a breaking news development in fantasy football. The Arizona Cardinals designated running back Chase Edmonds to return from injured reserve after an ankle injury on Thursday. James Conner owners are worried about what comes next because #6 has been absolutely rolling, but Edmonds returning is a major development for the Cardinals.
The Cardinals are taking on the Los Angeles Rams this week. It is all hands on deck to get the Cardinals the advantage in the NFC West. The Rams are trying to take back its division now that the Seahawks and 49ers are down. However, the Cardinals offense is going to give everyone a chance to contribute. That includes Chase Edmonds. If he can make a move this week, Kliff Kingsbury is going to give him carry after carry.
