Panthers Have No Plans to Trade RB Chuba Hubbard or CB Jaycee Horn
Recent Rumors Debunked
The Carolina Panthers have no plans to trade running back Chuba Hubbard or cornerback Jaycee Horn, according to a report from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Hubbard, who is entering his third season with the Panthers, has been the subject of trade rumors since the team signed veteran running back Christian McCaffrey to a contract extension this offseason.
Horn, a first-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, has also been the subject of trade rumors, as the Panthers have a lot of depth at the cornerback position.
Rapoport's Report
Rapoport's report states that the Panthers have "no interest" in trading Hubbard or Horn and that the team views both players as "key pieces" of their future.
The report also states that the Panthers are "not actively shopping" either player and that they would only consider trading them if they received a "significant offer."
Panthers' Future Outlook
The Panthers are coming off a 5-12 season in 2022 and are looking to improve in 2023.
The team has a lot of young talent on both sides of the ball, and Hubbard and Horn are two of the most important pieces of that young core.
If the Panthers can keep both players, they will be in a good position to compete for a playoff spot in 2023.
