Cleveland Browns considering signing Kareem Hunt as starting running back in absence of injured Nick Chubb

Key points:

  • The Cleveland Browns are reportedly considering signing Kareem Hunt as their starting running back in the absence of Nick Chubb due to injury.
  • Hunt has previous experience with the Browns and is familiar with head coach Kevin Stefanski's system.
  • Nick Chubb's injury is a major blow to the team's playoff hopes.

Kareem Hunt is reportedly visiting the Cleveland Browns following Nick Chubb’s season-ending injury. The Browns are in need of a starting running back, and Hunt, who spent the last four seasons with the team, could fill that role. Head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed Chubb’s surgery and stated that he will miss the rest of the year. Hunt is familiar with Stefanski’s system and had a productive season in 2022, rushing for 468 yards and three touchdowns while playing in all 17 games. Hunt’s visit could potentially lead to a reunion with the Browns as their lead running back for the remainder of the season.
