Chiefs to sign RB Kareem Hunt to practice squad

Nate Taylor on X

The Chiefs are signing Kareem Hunt to their practice squad, per source.

Related players: Carson Steele, Samaje Perine

Fantasy Impact:

Hunt is now 29 so it remains to be seen just what he has left in the tank. But, he is familiar with the Chiefs offense, so there could be some opportunity to play sooner than later. It could come down to just how successful the Chiefs will be at RB with Steele and Perine, who could also be free agents this week in your league. Steel and Perine will get the first chances, but Hunt could at least be a deeper league stash if you can't claim Steele or Perine.

Browns RB Jerome Ford has hand injury

Jerome Ford had another solid, if unspectacular, game against the Jaguars, leading the Browns in carries (12) and rushing yards (51) while adding 31 receiving yards on five catches. However, he left in the fourth quarter after taking a shot to his hand/wrist area.

Fantasy Impact:

The story said he went for X-rays, but there were no updates on his status after the game. If Ford can't go, Hunt would be in store for a bigger workload in a home game against the Bears in what is an early Sunday game.

Jerome Ford, Kareem Hunt, and Pierre Strong Jr. all "going to be involved" in Browns run game

I think last week we got a glimpse of what we’ll see when it comes to the run game. I think Jerome Ford, Kareem Hunt and Pierre Strong Jr. are all going to be involved, and on Thursday, offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt essentially said as much.

“Really, it’s by committee right now,” Van Pelt said. “Everybody’s going to get their touches. I see all those guys (Ford and Hunt) as 1A, 1B. They could all come in and be productive, which they’ve shown. That was our plan last week going in with Jerome coming off of the injury, not sure he was going to make it. So, we just wanted to put him in on third downs early, see how he felt, and then know that we could get him the ball in the fourth quarter with fresh legs.”

Fantasy Impact:

It seems like the three-deep running back rotation that has come to fruition won't be ending any time soon. With Jerome Ford back in Week 8, he handled nine carries to Kareem Hunt's 14. Pierre Strong Jr.'s took ten carries himself, as the veteran Hunt went touch-less in the fourth quarter.

Ford should be the only legitimate fantasy option this week, as an RB2/3.

Browns RB Jerome Ford returns to practice

OT Jed Wills (foot), WR Marquise Goodwin (back and RB Jerome Ford (ankle) all back at practice today

Related Players: Kareem Hunt, Pierre Strong Jr

Fantasy Impact:

This is late in the week for clearance, which makes Ford's Week 8 fantasy aspirations shaky. The Browns backfield feels a lot like a stayaway in a slate with no Bye Weeks.
