Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) set to practice Wednesday

Pro Football Talk

Nov 01, 2021 · 3:04 PM EDT

Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey hasn’t played since suffering a hamstring injury against the Texans in Week Three. But it’s sounding like he should be back on the field imminently.

“Hopefully we get Christian back soon. Hopefully, it’s this week. If not this week, then next week,” Carolina head coach Matt Rhule said in his Monday press conference. “Obviously, he’s one of the best players in football. He brings something.”

Fantasy Impact:

McCaffrey initially did not go on injured reserve after he went down against Houston. But the Panthers then placed him on IR on Oct. 16, which shut him down for an additional three weeks. If McCaffrey practices Wednesday, that would begin his 21-day practice window for returning from IR, the story said. It remains to be seen if he'll be able to play in Week 9, an early-afternoon home game against the Patriots.

Rhule: Panthers will show different look going forward

Matt Rhule said we'll see a vastly different look from the Panthers moving forward.

Fantasy Impact:

It sounds like the team wants to get back to running the ball. The tweet said Rhule added they won't throw 40 times a game. Rhule also said: "We're going to redefine who we are and we're going to run the football and protect the quarterback." It will help to get McCaffrey back in the fold, but Hubbard proved worthy in the run game against the Eagles in Week 5, rushing for over 100 yards. Hubbard ran just 16 times in Week 6 while Darnold threw 41 times.

CMC increased his practice reps earlier in the week prior to late-week DNPs. Week 7 is another opportunity for the Panthers to get McCaffrey back.

Rhule: CMC '50-50' for Week 6

Panthers HC Matt Rhule told reporters Wednesday that RB Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) is '50-50' to play Week 6. Rhule said the same last week before declaring McCaffrey doubtful according to Joe Person of The Athletic.

Fantasy Impact:

It has been notable that McCaffrey continues to practice in pads and has not had any setbacks considering the injury. Chuba Hubbard was excellent Week 5 and can carry the running back load if Rhule and the Panthers decide to give CMC another week.
