  • Pete Sweeney of Arrowhead Pride reported that Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has been getting “increased work with the first team” during training camp, and he believes Hunt could challenge Spencer Ware for the starting running back spot.
  • The Chiefs drafted Hunt in third round this year from Toledo, and his 94.9 overall PFF grade in 2016 FBS was the highest for all running backs and second highest of any position.
  • Last season Hunt forced 98 missed tackles, tied for the most in FBS in 2016. His 112.4 elusive rating (measures a runner’s success beyond the point of being helped by his blockers) was seventh among all draft eligible running backs.
