NFL fans are loving Chris Berman's hilarious nickname for Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard
Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard has officially made it.
The fourth-year rusher has been knighted by longtime ESPN sportscaster and legendary moniker manufacturer Chris Berman. While presenting the highlights of Carolina's Week 12 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at halftime of last night's Monday Night Football broadcast, Berman continued to bestow the following title upon Hubbard . . .
Yeah, the man still has his fastball.
And needless to say, "Chuba Missile Crisis" is a hit with NFL fans . . .
That top-tier title is just one of the latest accomplishments for Hubbard, who is having himself a very memorable 2024.
Prior to the Week 10 trip to Munich, Germany, the Panthers signed Hubbard to a well-deserved four-year, $33.2 million extension. The deal now makes him the ninth-highest paid running back in the NFL on an annual basis.
He also enters Week 13 as the league's fifth-leading rusher (876 yards).
