Spencer Brown Scores, Paces Panthers' Backfield With 10 Carries
2 years agoCarolina Panthers running back Spencer Brown handled 10 carries for 36 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason opener against the Washington Commanders. He spent most of the 2021 season on Carolina's practice squad but looked determined to make the roster on Saturday with a couple of bulldozing runs. Chuba Hubbard was the backup running back last season and ultimately disappointed fantasy managers in superstar Christian McCaffrey's absence. The team also added D'Onta Foreman, who filled in admirably for an injured Derrick Henry in Tennessee last year. There are quite a few hurdles for Brown to overcome if he hopes to get a shot this season, but he may see the field as part of a running back committee if McCaffrey were to miss time.
