Kareem Hunt Visiting With Browns

Kareem Hunt Visiting With Browns

one year ago

Free-agent running back Kareem Hunt is visiting with the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday, according to a source. It doesn't come as much of a surprise after Nick Chubb suffered a gruesome season-ending knee injury in the Monday night loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2. Hunt has plenty of familiarity with the Browns, too, playing the last four seasons in Cleveland. Fantasy managers may be tempted to run out to the waiver wire and pick up Hunt, but head coach Kevin Stefanski said Jerome Ford will be the team's featured back for now after eclipsing 100 yards rushing when he replaced Chubb on Monday night. However, Hunt could steal valuable touches from Ford eventually if the Browns decide to reunite with the 28-year-old.
