The Carolina Panthers are coming off a surprising 30-0 win in Week 3.
They'll try to keep that momentum rolling on Sunday, but to do so, they'll be hoping to have offensive stars Chuba Hubbard and Tetairoa McMillan on the field.
Both the running back and wide receiver are listed as questionable for the 1 p.m. matchup at the New England Patriots.
On Saturday, ESPN's David Newton shared good news: "I expect both to play," Newton wrote on X.

That's a positive for the Panthers.
Hubbard is the lead back for Carolina, and he'll likely see a heavy workload in what could be a close game with the Pats.
Tet has already displayed his immense talent three games into his rookie season. In the win over the Falcons, McMillan made one of the best leaping catches you'll see.
"McMillan has been emphatic all week he will be ready," Newton added on X.
The Panthers seem like they aren't in a position to compete for a playoff spot, but coming off a 30-0 win, anything can seem possible. If Carolina can snag another win, it can build some serious momentum to see what this team can really accomplish. And having both Hubbard and McMillan on the field gives them a much better chance of victory.
