KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Pittsburgh Steelers

Kareem Hunt saw two more carries and hauled in one more catch than Isiah Pacheco in Week 16. Pacheco hasn't taken the lead role since returning from injury, allowing Hunt to hang around and make this a committee backfield. That's not good for fantasy owners, as the two become one in the same. But it's getting to the point where Hunt may be the preferred option in the backfield. That said, it's championship week. Are you willing to risk that? Hunt is an RB4 this week against a tough Steelers defense.

KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Cleveland Browns

It looks like Kareem Hunt is back to being a backup and a handcuff. He saw just six touches last week to Isiah Pacheco's 16. No reason for the Chiefs to change that style now. Hunt is best-served on the bench for the fantasy playoffs.

KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Kareem Hunt had just seven carries last week against the Raiders as the Chiefs got Isiah Pacheco back into the mix after missing nine games. Hunt took those seven carries for just 15 yards. Pacheco's seven carries went for 44 yards. Pacheco will return to the lead back role while Hunt may be more of a spell back going forward. Hunt is a flex option at best now with six teams on a bye. He'll be more of a handcuff than anything.

KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Kareem Hunt had another solid day last week against the Panthers, rushing 16 times for 68 yards. He also added 19 yards on three catches. Of course, the Chiefs are now getting back Isiah Pacheco, so Hunt's day as the lead back are over. But the Chiefs aren't going to toss Hunt aside after he did a nice job holding down the fort while Pacheco was out. The Chiefs may choose to split the work between Hunt and Pacheco, but until we see it in action, it looks a little muddy from a fantasy perspective. Both should be considered flex options against the Raiders.

KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Carolina Panthers

This may be the last week for Kareem Hunt as the lead back in Kansas City. Isiah Pacheco is close to returning but was ruled out this week. Hunt saw 14 carries for 60 yards last week against the Bills. He was non-existent in the passing game, not recording a catch after getting seven in Week 10 against the Broncos. This week is a great opportunity to really gain some steam and perhaps create some kind of timeshare with Pacheco. The Panthers are allowing the most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. Fire up Hunt this week.

KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Buffalo Bills

Isaiah Pacheco may still be a couple of weeks away, so this is still Kareem Hunt's show for now. The show was stalled a bit last week, at least on the ground, by the Broncos, as Hunt went for just 35 yards. He did catch seven passes for 65 yards, giving him his second straight game with 100+ total yards. He should find more room to run this week against the Bills, who rank 15th against the run and are allowing 4.9 yards per carry.

KC RB Kareem Hunt - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Denver Broncos

Kareem Hunt posted his second 100-yard game this season, ironically both came on a Monday night appearance. Hunt does face a tough matchup against a Broncos run defense that ranks in the top ten. But given the volume Hunt gets (at least 21 carries in four straight games), he remains one of the better fantasy options among running backs this week.
