Panthers holding out hope for McCaffrey return

The Carolina Panthers are holding out hope for a quick return for star running back CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY, as the team decided not to put him on injured reserve due to his hamstring injury. If McCaffrey had been placed on injured reserve, he would have missed a minimum of three games. Avoiding IR means that McCaffrey could return to action sooner rather than later. Until he does return, backup running back CHUBA HUBBARD will likely assume the leading role in the backfield. Fellow rusher ROYCE FREEMAN could also be in the mix.
