Christian McCaffrey (hamstring) misses practice

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey missed Thursday's practice with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact: 

There is still no definitive word on if the missed practice was due to a simple maintenance day or if CMC suffered a setback. We should get more clarity on this situation tomorrow afternoon when the Panthers take the field for practice. There was optimism that he would make his return this week, but the missed practice has set off the alarm bells. After Wednesday's session, CMC was tabbed as 50-50 by head coach Matt Rhule (he does not talk to the media on Thursdays). Chuba Hubbard has looked like a steal since taking over the lead back duties and is currently our 14th ranked running back for Week 6.
