AJ Dillon rushed four times for 16 yards in the Panthers’ Week 3 loss to the Browns. 2026-09-27 19:00:02 With Jonathon Brooks joining Trevor Etienne on injured reserve, Dillon was indeed the Panthers’ No. 2 back behind Chuba Hubbard. Good for him, though Pro Football Focus charted him with zero first half snaps. Were Hubbard to ever go down with injury, Dillion would form some sort of committee with a practice squad elevation or free agent addition. |

ESPN’s Mike Kaye believes AJ Dillon could spell Chuba Hubbard on “obvious passing downs” in Week 3. 2026-09-25 16:00:02 Dillon will step into the main backup role for Week 3 after Jonathon Brooks (groin) wound up on injured reserve. There’s no real timeshare here; Hubbard will be the main back. But Dillon could cut into PPR point territory as Panthers OC Brad Idzik was described as “pleasantly surprised” by the veteran’s receiving ability. |
