Kareem Hunt To Split Touches In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will take on the Houston Texans in Week 16. Hunt was nearly phased out of the Chiefs backfield with Isiah Pacheco returning from injury, but his usage ramped back up in Week 15. The 29-year-old handled 13 carries last week against the Cleveland Browns, earning the same number of touches as Pacheco. It will be interesting to see how many opportunities Hunt receives this week against the Texans, who rank fourth in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. Hunt is ranked RB46 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a desperation flex option this week. With the two Chiefs running backs splitting touches in a poor matchup, it will be difficult for fantasy managers to trust either of them in the fantasy playoffs.

Kareem Hunt Splits Carries In Week 15 Win

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had 13 carries for 45 yards and one catch for four yards in the 21-7 win over the Cleveland Browns. Hunt and Isiah Pacheco handled 14 touches out of the backfield, but Hunt finished with more total yards. After playing a secondary role in Week 14, Hunt was more featured in this week's contest against the Browns. Despite earning more opportunities, fantasy managers will have a tough time starting Hunt next week against the Houston Texans. The Texans rank third in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season, making them one of the toughest matchups. If Hunt and Pacheco continue to split touches in a difficult matchup, it will be tough for either running back to have upside in next week's game. It should also be noted that Patrick Mahomes left this week's contest with an ankle injury and is considered questionable for next week. If Mahomes does not play, the ceiling for the Chiefs offense and offensive playmakers will be lowered. Hunt should be viewed as a deeper flex option.

Kareem Hunt Off Fantasy Radar For Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has fallen off the radar ever since teammate Isiah Pacheco returned to the mix in Week 13. Over his last two games, Hunt has just 12 rushes for 31 yards on the ground, plus three catches for an additional 13 yards through the air. The veteran filled in admirably when Pacheco missed time with a fibula injury earlier in the year, but he's back now and should continue to see his role get bigger while Hunt's gets smaller. Moving forward, the 29-year-old should be viewed as a mid-to-low fantasy RB4. That ranking holds true this week against the Browns, who have allowed the third-fewest catches and receiving yards to opposing running backs in 2024, as well as the ninth-fewest fantasy points.

Kareem Hunt To Take A Back Seat In Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will face the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night in Week 14. Hunt handled seven carries for 15 yards and two catches for four yards in last week's win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old evenly split the backfield carries with Isiah Pacheco, but the latter was the more explosive option. With another week to get back to game speed, it stands to reason that Pacheco will shift the backfield share more in his direction. Even if the split remains relatively even this week, Hunt will have his work cut out for him against the Chargers. The Chargers rank sixth in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season, making them one of the most challenging matchups. Hunt is ranked RB30 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings this week, putting him on the flex radar in a week with six teams on bye. Fantasy managers should try their best not to start Hunt this week.

Kareem Hunt With 15 Yards In Week 13 Win

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had seven carries for 15 yards in the 19-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Hunt also had two catches for zero yards in the contest. The Chiefs were seconds away from their second loss of the season, but the Raiders fumbled their chance away on a bad snap. The veteran running back ceded work to Isiah Pacheco, who returned from injured reserve in Week 13. The two backs each received seven carries, but Pacheco was the more explosive of the pair. Hunt will try to retain some value next week against the Los Angeles Chargers, who rank fifth in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. It will be tough for Hunt to contend with the younger Pacheco, so fantasy managers should prepare for the split to start favoring the latter.

Kareem Hunt Off The Injury Report, Ready To Face Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will take on the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 13. Hunt was on the injury report this week with a toe injury but practiced fully all week and does not have an injury designation for this week's game. Hunt had 16 carries for 68 yards and three catches for 19 yards against the Panthers in Week 12. Despite his strong workload, Hunt could not find the endzone for the third straight game. The 29-year-old will now have to deal with the return of Isiah Pacheco in Week 13. Pacheco was the undisputed lead runner out of the backfield before breaking his leg in Week 2. It will be interesting to see how the backfield split shakes out in Pacheco's first game back, but Hunt's value will undoubtedly take a hit against the Raiders this week. The Raiders rank 21st in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season, making them an advantageous matchup for Hunt. Hunt is ranked RB25 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, landing him outside of RB2 territory for most leagues. The veteran running back will try to retain his role in the valuable Kansas City backfield, but fantasy managers should prepare if he takes a backseat to Pacheco.

Kareem Hunt With 16 Carries In Week 12 Win

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had 16 carries for 68 yards in the team's 30-27 win over the Carolina Panthers. Despite facing one of the easiest matchups for running backs, Hunt managed under 70 rushing yards and zero touchdowns in this contest. This game may have been Hunt's last with zero competition out of the backfield since Isiah Pacheco will likely return in Week 13. Nevertheless, the Chiefs play on Black Friday against the Las Vegas Raiders, who rank 26th in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. Hunt could still be involved out of the backfield if the Chiefs decide to lighten Pacheco's workload in his first game back from a broken leg. Fantasy managers should still find a way to get Hunt into their lineups but temper expectations with Pacheco returning.

Kareem Hunt Off Injury Report, Ready To Face Panthers In Week 12

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will take on the Carolina Panthers in Week 12. Hunt was on the injury report with a knee injury but practiced fully all week and has no injury designation heading into this week's matchup. Hunt had a poor showing in last week's 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Hunt had 14 carries for 60 yards and no touchdowns in the contest. The 29-year-old will now face the Carolina Panthers, who rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. Hunt's role as the lead back will continue for at least one more week, with Isiah Pacheco ruled out for this game. The veteran running back is ranked RB8 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings this week, making him a strong RB1 option. Fantasy managers should be excited to start Hunt this week.

Kareem Hunt With 14 Carries In Week 11 Loss

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had 14 carries for 60 yards in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Hunt was held out of the endzone in this contest in the team's first loss this season, leading to a mediocre fantasy performance. Despite being heavily involved in the passing game last week, Hunt did not see a single target in this contest. The Bills defense was viewed as a favorable matchup for running backs going into this game, but Buffalo held Hunt to 4.3 yards per carry. The veteran running back may have seen his last game as the undisputed lead back for the Chiefs as Isiah Pacheco is expected to return to the team in Week 12. It will be interesting to see what the backfield split will look like with Pacheco involved against the Carolina Panthers next week. The Panthers rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season, so Hunt should be productive with the touches he gets. Fantasy managers should monitor Pacheco's involvement to determine what Hunt's value will be moving forward.

Kareem Hunt Off The Injury Report, Ready To Face The Bills

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will take on the Buffalo Bills in Week 11. Hunt found himself on the injury report with a knee injury but practiced fully all week and has been removed from the report ahead of the contest. Hunt turned into another strong performance against the Denver Broncos in last week's contest. The veteran running back did not find much success on the ground, only gaining 35 yards on 14 carries, but he found success through the air. The 29-year-old hauled in seven catches for 65 yards against the Broncos. Hunt will have an easier matchup this week against the Buffalo Bills, who rank 31st in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. Hunt is ranked RB15 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings this week, so start him as a high-end RB2. Fantasy managers will have to deal with the eventual return of Isiah Pacheco, but Hunt will have the backfield to himself for at least another week.
