Kareem Hunt has signed with the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad after a meeting on Tuesday. With starting running back Isiah Pacheco expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks due to a fibula injury, Hunt may have the opportunity to be elevated to the active roster soon. Although Hunt's performance has declined in recent seasons, the Chiefs are hopeful that he can regain his form now that he is healthy.

• Kareem Hunt's return to Kansas City could provide valuable depth in the backfield.
• Hunt's past performance with the Chiefs was impressive, but recent seasons have seen a decline.
• The Chiefs are looking to bolster their running game with Pacheco's injury.
