Chuba Hubbard's journey from a track star to an NFL running back is a testament to his relentless work ethic and determination. Growing up in Edmonton, Alberta, Hubbard set Canadian records in the 100 and 200 meters, dreaming of Olympic glory. However, football became his true passion, leading him to Oklahoma State and eventually the NFL.

Rising Through the Ranks Hubbard, a 2021 fourth-round draft pick, quickly became a key player for the Carolina Panthers. After Christian McCaffrey's departure in 2022, Hubbard stepped up, rushing for a career-high 1,195 yards in 2024 despite injuries. His performance earned him a four-year, $33.2 million contract.

Olympic Dreams Rekindled The NFL's recent decision to allow players to compete in flag football at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles has reignited Hubbard's childhood dream. 'Hell yeah!' Hubbard exclaimed when asked if he wants to represent Canada. He plans to still be thriving in the NFL by 2028 and hopes to be a part of the Canadian Olympic team.

A Legacy of Excellence Hubbard's journey is marked by his unwavering commitment to excellence. From his early days in track to his current success in the NFL, he continues to set high standards. 'I want to be the best,' Hubbard said. 'I want to win games, win a Super Bowl, and achieve greatness.'

Looking Ahead As Hubbard prepares for the 2025 NFL season, he also has his sights set on the 2028 Olympics. With a strong work ethic and a passion for both football and track, Hubbard is poised to make history on the international stage.
