Hubbard is

2nd in solo tackles (27) behind Josh Allen
3rd in total tackles (45) behind Allen and Leonard Williams
3rd in tackles for loss (10) behind Nick Bosa and Myles Garrett
7th in sacks (6)
7th in PDs (3)
14th in QB hits (11)

and

FIRST in fumble return yards (43)

Last year was a down year for Hubbard, but a lot of that was honestly on the lack of quality players around him.  This year, he's playing next to a top tier NT and has an elite pass rusher lined up at the other DE spot and he's producing at a high level.
