Hubbard rushed 10 times for 35 yards and caught three of four targets for 15 yards in Friday night's 34-9 preseason win over the Steelers.
Hubbard started at tailback and led the Panthers in touches, but a dropped pass put a small damper on his evening. The rookie endured a few miscues while also making a few big plays during the preseason, so consistency will be key as Hubbard prepares to serve as Christian McCaffrey's backup in the upcoming campaign.
