The Cleveland Browns have signed running back Kareem Hunt to a one-year deal worth up to $4 million. This move comes after starting running back Nick Chubb suffered a season-ending knee injury. Hunt, who spent the past four seasons with the Browns, is familiar with head coach Kevin Stefanski's offense. However, he had an inefficient 2022 season, averaging just 3.8 yards per carry. Despite this, both Hunt and Jerome Ford are worth rostering in fantasy leagues.
