Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard signed a four-year contract extension on Thursday that spans through the 2028 season.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the team. NFL Network reported it was worth $33.2 million with a maximum value of $37.2 million and $15 million fully guaranteed for Hubbard, who would have been a free agent after this season.





"He exemplifies everything we want on and off the field," Panthers general manager Dan Morgan said in a statement. "Chuba is passionate about football, is productive, and is committed to his teammates and winning."

Hubbard, 25, ranks fifth in the NFL with 665 rushing yards on a career-high 5.0 yards per carry in nine games (all starts) this season. The Alberta native has matched a career high with a team-leading six total touchdowns (five rushing, one receiving).
