Not a ton has gone right for the Carolina Panthers this season. However, it's safe to say that running back Chuba Hubbard has been a pleasant surprise. Hubbard has been consistent with the ball in his hands, being a standout for the offense.

In the win over the Saints last week, Hubbard rushed for two touchdowns. It was great to see. Now, he is being rewarded for his play, as it was announced that Carolina has given the young RB a four-year extension.

Thus far this season, Hubbard has rushed for 665 yards and five touchdowns. While there's plenty of excitement surrounding Jonathan Brooks, Hubbard still has a bright future with this team, no doubt about that.
