Kareem Hunt Won't Return This Week
3 years agoCleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (calf) will not return in Week 11 against the Detroit Lions, but head coach Kevin Stefanski said he's getting closer to returning from Injured Reserve. Hunt has been out since Week 6 with a right calf strain. If he was dropped in your league, he needs to be picked up and stashed immediately. With Nick Chubb and rookie Demetric Felton on the COVID-19 list last week, D'Ernest Johnson had the backfield all to himself and fell a yard short of his second 100-yard game of 2021. Chubb should be able to return and play this Sunday against the Lions, where he'll be a no-brainer RB1 in a great matchup. Hunt should have standalone value in PPR leagues when he returns next to Chubb in Cleveland's run-heavy offense.
