In line for increased carries Foreman will likely split carries with Chuba Hubbard for the Panthers after Christian McCaffrey was traded Thursday.

Impact McCaffrey dominated the work out of Carolina's backfield through six games this season, so there will be a significant number of touches available after he was traded to the 49ers. It's unclear whether Foreman or Chuba Hubbard will lead the running backs corps moving forward, as Foreman has seen 12 carries as compared to Hubbard's six. A fairly even split could continue, which would limit the fantasy potential of both backs -- particularly considering the poor state of the Panthers' offense.

Garners five carries Foreman rushed five times for 19 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Rams.

Impact Foreman's 10 offensive snaps topped fellow backup Chuba Hubbard's four. Although that involvement yielded a season high in carries, Foreman's production remained limited overall. With the Panthers seeing another quarterback injured Sunday, they could rely more on the ground game in Week 7 versus the Bucs, but Foreman's stock is nonetheless capped by Christian McCaffrey's dynamic presence above him.

Gets two carries Foreman rushed twice for two yards in Sunday's 37-15 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Foreman played just three offensive snaps behind star Christian McCaffrey. Although it's encouraging that Foreman at least got the ball while teammate Chuba Hubbard didn't on any of his 11 offensive plays, both running backs possess minimal value as long as McCaffrey is available.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Only one touch Foreman rushed once for two yards in Sunday's 26-16 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact Foreman and fellow backup Chuba Hubbard combined for just seven offensive snaps Sunday, leaving little value behind Christian McCaffrey despite the star tailback nursing a thigh injury in the buildup to Week 4.

OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Plays four offensive snaps in win Foreman failed to record a single rush in Sunday's 22-14 win over the Saints.

Impact Foreman was clearly not a part of the game plan Sunday, as he played just four of the Panthers' 61 offensive snaps. As usual, Christian McCaffrey played the majority of snaps at running back, with Chuba Hubbard recording only three rushing attempts in the contest on only seven snaps. It's possible that the 26-year-old may have lost his place as McCaffrey's top backup, but both his and Hubbard's snap shares were too similar to jump to any definitive conclusions. With that said, neither Foreman nor Hubbard retain much fantasy value barring an injury to McCaffrey. The Panthers are set to host the Cardinals in Week 4, and Foreman remains far off the fantasy radar.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gets two carries Foreman rushed twice for nine yards in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Giants.

Impact Foreman carried on two of his three offensive snaps, playing a tiny role behind star tailback Christian McCaffrey. With teammate Chuba Hubbard fumbling the opening kickoff, however, Foreman's place as McCaffrey's top backup should remain intact heading into Week 3 versus the Saints.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Gets start Friday Foreman carried the ball seven times for 16 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Patriots.

Impact The offseason signing got the start ahead of Chuba Hubbard in this one with Christian McCaffrey once again held out, but neither Foreman nor Hubbard impressed with roughly equal workloads, and no Carolina back managed a run of longer than seven yards on an ineffective night overall for the offense. It seems as though the battle for the Panthers' No. 2 RB spot will continue into next week's preseason finale against the Bills.

Works behind Hubbard Foreman rushed three times for five yards in Saturday's 23-21 preseason win over the Commanders.

Impact Foreman entered the game behind Chuba Hubbard, who started at running back with Christian McCaffrey sitting out. Although Hubbard only carried four times for 11 yards, his competition with Foreman to serve as McCaffrey's primary backup should be worth monitoring during the preseason.

Returns to practice Foreman is practicing Wednesday after dealing with a minor foot/ankle injury Tuesday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Foreman, a free-agent addition, hopes to supplant 2021 fourth-round pick Chuba Hubbard as the No. 2 back in Carolina. It doesn't sound like Foreman's minor foot injury will have much impact on their competition.

AUGUST 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Banged up in practice Foreman appeared to suffer a foot or ankle injury at Tuesday's practice and rode a bike on the side after exiting the session, Augusta Stone of panthers.com reports.

Impact It's a good sign Foreman stayed on the sideline and was able to move around under his own power, perhaps hinting at a bruise or minor sprain. He and Chuba Hubbard are competing for backup roles behind do-it-all back Christian McCaffrey, who made 10 appearances total the past two seasons after starting his career with three straight 16-game campaigns.

Set to serve in complementary role Carolina is hoping Foreman can provide a bigger, more physical complement to Christian McCaffrey and Chuba Hubbard in the backfield in 2022, Darin Gantt of the team's official site...

Impact Foreman was brought aboard this offseason after filling in admirably for the injured Derrick Henry with the Titans in 2021. In nine games, he rushed 133 times for 566 yards (4.3 per carry) and three touchdowns, and he caught nine of 11 targets for 123 more yards. Although Hubbard proved to be a serviceable replacement while McCaffrey missed 10 games last season, he doesn't pack the punch that the 6-foot-1, 236-pound Foreman does. When healthy, McCaffrey should be the focus of Carolina's offense, but given his different skill set, Foreman could carve out a decent-sized complementary role and prove useful in short-yardage situations.

Joining Carolina Foreman agreed to terms on a contract with the Panthers on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact Foreman was a midseason signing of the Titans last fall as the team looked to fill the void left behind by Derrick Henry, who was lost for the rest of the regular season in Week 8 due to a broken bone in his foot. Foreman seized the opportunity, averaging 4.6 yards on his 137 carries while hauling in nine of 11 targets for 123 yards and scoring three touchdowns in 10 games (including Tennessee's divisional-round loss to the Bengals). With the Panthers, he'll clearly be behind Christian McCaffrey on the depth chart and likely competing with Chuba Hubbard for any backfield touches that remain.

Produces in relief Foreman rushed the ball four times for 66 yards in Saturday's 19-16 divisional-round loss to the Bengals.

Impact Foreman was relegated to backup duties due to the return of Derrick Henry (foot). Though that limited his opportunities, he was effective when called upon by ripping off gains of 45, 10 and nine yards. Tennessee's season ended in disappointing fashion, but it was very successful for Foreman from a personal perspective. He earned a career-high 133 carries to gain 566 yards and three touchdowns, which came primarily when he served as the team's lead back while Henry was sidelined. Foreman will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and should finally be able to land a deal and earn a fairly substantial role in a backfield.

Impact Even if Henry's not ready to return to his customary workhorse role right away, he'll likely get the majority of rushing attempts in Tennessee's backfield. Henry should usurp Foreman's early-down role, while Dontrell Hilliard's workload on passing downs will likely remain intact. After topping 20 rushing attempts in three of the past four games, Foreman will be fighting an uphill battle to even reach half that total against Cincinnati.

Can't get going Foreman rushed the ball 21 times for 69 yards in Sunday's 28-25 win over Houston. He added one reception for 15 yards.

Impact Foreman dominated work out of the backfield, out-touching Dontrell Hilliard 21-10. Even so, his production left plenty to be desired, as he averaged only 3.3 yards per carry while failing to find the end zone. His run as the Titans' lead back is also likely to be over as Derrick Henry (foot) has been activated from injured reserve with the expectation that he'll be able to return to the field for the team's postseason run.

Big bounceback effort Foreman rushed the ball 26 times for 132 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Foreman continued to handle the lead-back role for Tennessee, though he bounced back in a big way from a disappointing Week 16 performance. He benefited from game script from a volume perspective to log a career-high 26 carries. However, Foreman also made the most of his opportunity by ripping off big gains of 35 and 14 yards in addition to a 21-yard touchdown late in the second quarter. Though the Titans use three backs, Foreman has managed to top 100 rushing yards in three of his last five games heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Texans.

Touchdown salvages poor performance Foreman recorded nine carries for 17 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 20-17 win over San Francisco.

Impact Foreman narrowly led the Titans' backfield by accounting for nine of the team's 24 rushing attempts. However, he was out-gained by both Jeremy McNichols and Dontrell Hilliard, with Foreman's longest rush of the day going for only eight yards. Adding to the disappointing effort was the fact that Foreman did not earn a target after posting multiple receptions in each of his last two contests. Even given all those negatives, Foreman managed to salvage his performance on a three-yard touchdown run midway through the third quarter. While the disappointing effort casts some doubt on Foreman's ability to produce in a Week 17 matchup against Miami, he is still likely to remain the lead back in Tennessee.
