  • Stymied by Steelers

    Hunt carried the ball 13 times for 40 yards in Week 6 against the Steelers. He added two receptions for 17 yards.

    Analysis: The Browns worked from behind for the entire game, limiting Hunt's involvement as a rusher. While he remained involved in the passing game, Hunt struggled to find space in either facet of the game and racked up only 57 yards on 15 total touches. Even so, Hunt was the clear lead back for the team, with Dontrell Hilliard worked into the game only during garbage time. That bodes well for Hunt's ability to bounce back in Week 7 against the Bengals.

  • No injury designation for Week 6

    Hunt (thigh) was a full participant in practice Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Steelers, Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Hunt upgraded to full participation after a pair of limited sessions and is set to serve as the feature back in a run-heavy Cleveland offense with Nick Chubb (knee) on IR. D'Ernest Johnson -- who has 21 carries over the past two weeks -- will be on hand to spell Hunt, but Hunt is the superior option as both a rusher and a receiver, meaning he'll be heavily involved regardless of how game script plays out.

  • Limited with thigh injury

    Hunt was limited in practice Wednesday due to a thigh injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt has been playing through a groin issue recently, so the thigh injury may be related. Barring any setbacks in practice this week, Hunt should ultimately be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Steelers. With Nick Chubb (knee) on injured reserve, Hunt should again handle the majority of the backfield snaps and touches, with D'Ernest Johnson serving as his top backup.

  • Scores TD despite tough sledding

    Hunt carried 20 times for 72 yards while adding three catches (on four targets) for 21 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 32-23 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Hunt shrugged off a groin injury and received a full workload as the team's lead back. Despite averaging just 3.6 yards per carry against a strong Colts defense, the volume he received, along with a two-yard receiving touchdown in the second quarter, enabled him to produce respectable fantasy numbers. Hunt appears to be back to full strength and should receive plenty of touches next Sunday against the Steelers, especially if Baker Mayfield (ribs) is limited after suffering a knock at the end of…read more

  • Cleared to play Sunday

    Hunt (groin) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Colts after practicing fully Friday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: With that, Hunt is poised to head the Browns' rushing attack both Sunday and beyond, with Nick Chubb (knee) on injured reserve and expected to miss about six weeks. D'Ernest Johnson will also factor into Cleveland's backfield fix, but assuming he's moved on from the groin injury that had been affecting his practice participation prior to Friday, Hunt is now poised to see a greater percentage of the Browns' carries, after previously working in a timeshare that slightly tilted in Chubb's favor.…read more

  • Still limited Thursday

    Hunt (groin) was limited in Thursday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Hunt managed to play through his groin injury against the Cowboys in Week 4, so that he's been able to take the field in some capacity for back-to-back practices is somewhat encouraging. The Browns may simply be taking a cautious approach to Hunt's health, given that he's on track to serve as the team's clear top back with Nick Chubb (knee) expected to spend roughly six weeks on IR.

  • Limited at practice Wednesday

    Hunt (groin) was limited at practice Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site previously relayed that coach Kevin Stefanski indicated that Hunt came out of this past Sunday's win over the Cowboys "pretty good," after having dealt with a groin injury leading up to Week 4 action. With that in mind, Hunt's limitations Wednesday were likely maintenance-related, as he prepares for an expanded role in Cleveland's ground game with Nick Chubb (knee) on injured reserve and expected to miss about six weeks.

  • Survives Week 4

    Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Hunt came out of Sunday's win over the Cowboys "pretty good" after dealing with a groin injury during the practice week, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: He should assume a bigger role while Nick Chubb (knee) is sidelined. Hunt's averaged 12.5 carries per game, but that could increase with Chubb expected to miss about six weeks. D'Ernest Johnson will also compete for touches, as the Browns typically give their top two backs significant playing time each game.

  • Scores two rushing TDs

    Hunt carried 11 times for 71 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 49-38 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Hunt finished second on the team in carries while gashing the Dallas defense for 6.5 yards per carry. He found the end zone on a two-yard run in the second quarter and added a 14-yard score to help his side build an insurmountable lead in the third. Meanwhile, Nick Chubb (knee) left the game in the first half and did not return, opening the door for Hunt to carry more of the load. However, D'Ernest Johnson stepped in and led the team with 95 rushing yards on 13 carries, and he could be a major…read more

  • Set to play in Dallas

    Hunt (groin) is active for the Week 4 matchup at Dallas, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Hunt saw his only practice action of the week Friday on a limited basis, but optimistic reports started to surface very early Sunday morning. That sentiment has since been confirmed by Hunt's absence from the inactive list, and he'll once again be poised to work in tandem with Nick Chubb in the Cleveland backfield. The one thing the Dallas defense has been respectable at this year is limiting passes caught by opposing running backs, as the 11 receptions given up to the position is tied for the…read more

  • Likely good to go Week 4

    Hunt (groin), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The running back sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday before returning to a limited session Friday, and he now appears in line to work in tandem with Nick Chubb in Week 4. Confirmation of Hunt's status will arrive upon the release of the Browns' inactive list approximately 90 minutes in advance of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Makes positive impression

    Hunt (groin) looked good during individual drills that were open to the media Friday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt sat out practices Wednesday and Thursday but returned Friday and was impressive in sessions open to onlookers. Per Cabot's description, one would not know Hunt was dealing with a groin injury. He's listed as questionable due to being labeled as a limited participant Friday, but Hunt looks like he'll be a go for Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Listed as questionable

    Hunt (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys after logging a limited practice Friday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The running back sat out practice both Wednesday and Thursday, but his return to practice Friday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- has him trending in the right direction in advance of Week 4 action.

  • Back at practice

    Hunt (groin) is participating in the portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt has missed two straight practices due to a groin strain, but it looks like he'll be listed as at least a 'limited' participant on Friday's final injury report. If the 25-year-old were to have his touches restricted in Dallas on Sunday -- or even sit out the contest entirely -- Nick Chubb would stand to see a notable uptick in his already sizable workload.

  • Sidelined for another practice

    Hunt (groin) won't participate in Thursday's practice, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: While the Browns don't believe Hunt's groin issue is significant, he'll be sidelined for a second straight practice on account of the injury. Starter Nick Chubb and Hunt have had a fairly even split of the backfield reps through three games, but the distribution of snaps and touches could tilt more in Chubb's favor Sunday in Dallas if the groin injury results in Hunt's workload being limited, if he's not held out of the contest entirely.

  • Injury not serious

    Hunt's groin injury is not believed to be serious and he will try to play Sunday against the Cowboys, a source told Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

    Analysis: Hunt did not practice Wednesday due to the injury. The Browns promoted Dontrell Hilliard from the practice squad Wednesday, raising some speculation about the significance of Hunt's injury.

  • Dealing with groin injury

    Hunt was held out of Wednesday's practice with a groin injury, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt didn't show any sign of injury in Sunday's 34-20 win over Washington, once again serving as the Browns' fourth-quarter closer after Nick Chubb piled up stats throughout most of the game. If the groin injury were to threaten Hunt's status for Week 4 at Dallas, the Browns might turn to Chubb for a three-down role, or else they could use D'Ernest Johnson or Dontrell Hilliard to take on some of the vacated workload. Hilliard was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday,…read more

  • Tallies touchdown reception

    Hunt rushed 16 times for 46 yards in Week 3 against Washington. He added two receptions for 18 yards and a touchdown.

    Analysis: Hunt accounted for 16 of the team's 37 rushing attempts but failed to gain much yardage. However, he managed to make a pair of contributions through the air, hauling in a nine-yard touchdown in the final minute of the first half. He followed that up with a one-handed catch with five minutes remaining in the game to seal the victory for the Browns. Though Hunt was bottled up on the ground, he's showcased a solid floor due his involvement in the passing game, recording at least two receptions in…read more

  • Scores twice in Week 2 win

    Hunt rushed 10 times for 86 yards and a touchdown and brought in both his targets for 15 yards and another score in the Browns' 35-30 win over the Bengals on Thursday.

    Analysis: For the second time in four days, Hunt was particularly efficient on the ground, and he averaged 8.4 yards per play on the 12 occasions he got his hands on the ball overall Thursday. While the 2017 third-round pick did play a clear second fiddle to backfield mate Nick Chubb in terms of rushing workload after outpacing him by three carries in Week 1, Hunt still offered plenty from a fantasy perspective with six-yard receiving score in the second quarter and a game-sealing one-yard scoring run in…read more

  • Garners 17 total touches in loss

    Hunt rushed 13 times for 72 yards and secured four of six targets for nine yards in the Browns' 38-6 loss to the Ravens on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    Analysis: Perhaps largely due to game script, Hunt outpaced backfield mate Nick Chubb by three carries in the lopsided defeat. Both backs were ultimately highly efficient, with Hunt's impressive 5.5 yards per rush just trailing Chubb's even better 6.0 figure. Hunt's involvement in the ground attack isn't likely to be as voluminous as it was Sunday on most weeks, but his six targets in the passing game may be close to the norm, considering he logged five or more in half of his eight games last season and…read more

  • Signs two-year extension

    Hunt agreed to a two-year, $13.25 extension with the Browns on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: This extension will keep Hunt in Cleveland for two more years after this season. Between Hunt and 2018 second-rounder Nick Chubb, the Browns have two of the league's most explosive running backs in their backfield. The former Chiefs standout is expected to play more of a Swiss army knife role that involves lining up both in the backfield and as a receiver at times while Chubb plays a more traditional running back role.

  • Fills in on first team

    Hunt has been taking snaps with the first-team offense since Nick Chubb suffered a concussion during Monday's practice, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt is a backup by title, but he's expected to play a large role offensively even when Chubb is healthy. When Chubb returns, Hunt will move to more of a receiving role, but the 25-year-old has a rushing title on his resume and can be a capable fill-in should Chubb's concussion symptoms linger.

  • Wants to stay in Cleveland

    Hunt hopes to stay with the Browns long term, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt is scheduled to play out 2020 under a restricted free agent tender for $3.26 million. His desire to stay in Cleveland doesn't necessarily mean he'll sign an extension this summer, and it's possible he changes his mind if he spends the upcoming season behind Nick Chubb in the backfield. Former Browns GM John Dorsey was happy to scoop up Hunt at a discount after the running back was investigated for assault, but new GM Andrew Berry may view things differently, especially after Hunt was found…read more

  • Part of third WR mix

    Hunt has been participating in offseason virtual programs with wide receivers, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: That practice follows in line with Hunt's role from 2019, when he finished third on the Browns with 37 catches despite missing the first eight games due to a suspension. Cleveland tried a number of wideouts as the No. 3 wide receiver and none could hold the job, which remains wide open heading into 2020. The Browns feel Hunt can do more than just serve as backup to Nick Chubb, so expect him to be active in the passing game.

  • Inks contract tender

    Hunt has signed his second-round contract tender with the Browns, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt, who thus stands to earn $3.26 million this coming season, carried 43 times for 179 yards and two TDs to go along with 37 catches for 285 yards and a receiving score in eight games with the Browns in 2019 after returning from an eight-game suspension. Now that he's back in the fold, the 24-year-old will continue to serve as the team's No. 2 back behind Nick Chubb. However, even in that context, Hunt's involvement in Cleveland's passing game puts the 2017 third-rounder on the PPR radar.

  • Gets second-round tender

    Hunt has received a second-round restricted free agent tender from the Browns, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Given Hunt's status as a 2017 third-round pick, the Browns probably could've gotten away with an original-round tender to dissuade any offer sheets. The decision to go a bit higher and pay more money suggests the running back is a priority, though an offseason traffic stop briefly cast doubt upon his future with the team. Hunt escaped the incident without any charges, and he'll now enter the offseason program locked in as Cleveland's No. 2 running back behind Nick Chubb. Given his off-field…read more

    Hunt won't be charged with marijuana possession following a Jan. 21 traffic stop, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Hunt will escape the situation with nothing more than a speeding ticket, but the potential exists for the NFL to mete out punishment due to his checkered history away from the field. As for his future with the Browns, he's expected to receive a restricted free-agent tender from the team before the start of the new league year March 18. Placing an original-round tender on Hunt likely would be enough to stave off overtures from other organizations for the 2017 third-round pick, who racked up 464…read more

  • Getting RFA tender

    The Browns plan to give Hunt a restricted free agent tender, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: General manager Andrew Berry confirmed the plan but didn't elaborate on the level of the tender. An original-round tag should be enough to stave off interest from other teams, considering Hunt was a third-round pick back in 2017. His talent alone might warrant giving up a draft pick in addition to an offer sheet, but Hunt's problematic off-field history reduces his value to most teams.

  • Still supported by team

    Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said Wednesday that he still wants Hunt to be part of the team if the running back can follow the expectations that have been laid out for him, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt was in the news a couple weeks ago, when he was stopped for speeding and a police officer found a small amount of marijuana in his car. He seems to have escaped the incident with nothing more than a speeding ticket, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll avoid a fine and/or suspension from the NFL. The 24-year-old running back is scheduled to be a restricted free agent this offseason, and it sounds like the Browns still plan to keep him around. A second-round tender would cost…read more

  • Season-low yardage in Week 17

    Hunt gained four yards on three carries and caught three of four targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 33-23 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: The 36 combined yards from scrimmage were a season low for Hunt, who finishes the season with 179 rushing yards, 37 receptions, 285 receiving yards and three touchdowns over eight games. For the Browns, he worked hard and appeared to have learned from his off-field mistakes that led to an eight-game suspension to start the 2019 season. The NFL rushing leader in 2017 was used more as a receiving threat, which worked out well at times for the team. Hunt and Nick Chubb were a potent two-back duo…read more

  • Catches four passes vs. Ravens

    Hunt carried three times for zero yards and caught four passes for 33 yards during Sunday's 31-15 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Hunt did next to nothing on the ground, but he chipped in as a pass catcher yet again. Although he finished averaging just 8.3 yards per reception, he managed to place third on the team in receiving yards in what amounted to a tough day for the Browns offense. Hunt should have more success in next Sunday's season finale against a Cincinnati team that has been gashed by running backs all season.

  • Impactful in passing game

    Hunt rushed four times for 14 yards and caught eight of nine targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Hunt saw teammate Nick Chubb go for another 127 yards on the ground, but Hunt at least managed to make a significant impact through the air. In fact, he trailed only Odell Beckham in targets and tied for Cleveland's team high in receptions. Despite Chubb surging toward the league's rushing title, Hunt has now garnered double-digit touches in all six of his appearances this season, giving him decent value to close the campaign.

    Hunt carried nine times for 28 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Bengals. He also caught two passes for an additional 40 yards in the 27-19 win.

    Analysis: Hunt averaged just 3.1 yards per carry but was able to salvage his performance with a short touchdown run, giving him three scores in as many weeks. He also reached 40 receiving yards for the third time in five games and has recorded double-digit touches in every game with the Browns. Hunt will have the opportunity to continue his ascent next Sunday in a favorable matchup with the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Hunt circled out of the backfield midway through the second quarter for a 15-yard catch-and-run for a touchdown, his second score in his last two games. Sunday was Hunt's best rushing day as a member of the Browns, but he's done most of his damage this season through the air, averaging five catches per game. He's tallied at least 45 total yards in all four of his games thus far and should continue that Sunday against a Bengals defense that came into this week surrendering 4.8 yards per carry,…read more

    Analysis: Hunt fared well on the ground against a porous Miami defense, averaging 4.6 yards per carry while scoring a six-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter. He was rather quiet in the passing game, however, which limited the extent to which he exploited this favorable matchup. Still, Hunt received double-digit touches yet again and should have a useful role again next Sunday against the Steelers.

    Hunt rushed six times for 12 yards and secured six of eight targets for 46 yards in the Browns' 21-7 win over the Steelers on Thursday.

    Analysis: Hunt was a distant second behind lead back Nick Chubb, who logged a season-high 27 carries. However, Hunt was a major part of the passing game for the second time in as many games since returning from his season-opening suspension, leading the Browns in receptions and checking in second only to Odell Beckham in receiving yardage. Head coach Freddie Kitchens appears set on sticking with Chubb as his clear-cut lead back for the moment, but Hunt should continue seeing his role in the offense…read more

  • Expected to have key role

    Steelers coach Mike Tomlin expects the Browns to expand their two-back packages with Hunt and Nick Chubb in Thursday's game, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: In his team debut in the Week 10 win over the Bills, Hunt played 54 percent of snaps, lining up as a halfback, in the slot, out wide and even as a fullback a couple times. That allowed Chubb to see 20 carries and two targets en route to playing 81 percent of the snaps, while Hunt earned four carries and nine targets. It's a safe bet both players stay involved in the offense in the Thursday night game, though Tomlin's expectation for increased use of two-back formations is less certain.

  • Ample playing time in debut

    Hunt played 38 snaps (54 percent) in Sunday's win over Buffalo, lining up nearly a third of the time (12 snaps) as something other than halfback, Dan Labbe of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: The Browns showed a lot of two-back looks, but they also had Hunt out wide at times. The third-year back had the third-most targets with nine, behind only Odell Beckham (12) and Jarvis Landry (nine), in his season debut. How the Browns planned to incorporate Hunt into the existing offense after serving an eight-game suspension became clearer Sunday. It looks like he may be the de facto third wideout over the final two months of the season, ahead of Rashard Higgins and Antonio Callaway.

  • Combines for 74 yards in debut

    Hunt carried four times for 30 yards and caught seven of nine targets for an additional 44 yards during Sunday's 19-16 win over the Bills.

    Analysis: Making his season debut, Hunt took on the role of the Browns' top pass-catching back, finishing second on the team in receptions and third in receiving yardage. He also impressively averaged 7.5 yards per carry, though the sample size was limited with Nick Chubb carrying the load in that regard. It was quite encouraging to see Hunt so involved in his first game with the team, and he should continue to work in a similar role in Thursday's showdown with the Steelers.

  • Will have role against Bills

    Coach Freddie Kitchens said Hunt (suspension) "will definitely have a role" in Sunday's game against the Bills, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Hunt completed his eight-game suspension for violating the league's personal conduct policy, and he's fully recovered from sports hernia surgery. He hasn't been lifted to the 53-man roster yet, but the official move will come before Sunday. In this past Sunday's loss to the Broncos, lead back Nick Chubb was taken off the field multiple times, but Dontrell Hilliard wasn't successful with just eight yards on five carries. The Browns hope Hunt can add another dimension to the backfield and form a…read more

  • Suspension completed

    Hunt completed his eight-game suspension and is expected to be reinstated to the Browns' 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills, The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: After making a full recovery from sports hernia surgery, Hunt already had resumed practicing with the Browns two weeks ago, signaling that the team planned to open up a spot on the roster for him once he was eligible to play. An official announcement on a roster move should arrive within the coming days, but coach Freddie Kitchens has yet to reveal what kind of role Hunt may fill behind lead back Nick Chubb in Week 10. Given his strong body of work in Kansas City, Hunt at least makes for a…read more
