Kareem Hunt Likely Headed To Injured Reserve
3 years agoCleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (calf) will be sidelined several weeks and is likely headed for injured reserve, according to Ian Rapoport. The rough estimate for his absence is four-to-six weeks, so the Browns will be without one of their top offensive players for a significant time period. Nick Chubb (calf) could miss another game, but his injury doesn't seem to be as significant as Hunt's. D'Ernest Johnson and Demetric Felton will fill the holes in the backfield for the time being, but once Chubb is ready to return he is likely to be relied upon even more. Chubb is likely going to be held out on Thursday night, so Johnson and Felton could be top waiver adds and would have some upside as FLEX options against the Denver Broncos in Week 7.
