Hubbard and interim head coach Steve Wilks both were optimistic Monday that the running back would return for Sunday's game in Cincinnati, after his absence from the Week 8 loss to the Atlanta Falcons helped D'Onta Foreman operate as the clear lead back en route to a three-touchdown day. 

Hubbard actually picked up more work than Foreman through the first three-quarters of the Panthers' first game without Christian McCaffrey in Week 7. He was forced to exit that game early with an ankle sprain. 

Hubbard has 97 rushing yards and one touchdown on 15 attempts this season.
