With RB Isiah Pacheco expected to be sideliend 6-8 weeks, the Chiefs are bringing their former RB Kareem Hunt back to Kansas City for a Tuesday visit, per league sources. Hunt could help fill the Chiefs’ running back void. pic.twitter.com/nDzNGlrcuH

BS--we had to cut him.The Browns were lucky we had to cut him.
If we could not have him, no one else should have.
I will never get past that.
Chiefs were not required to cut him. Chiefs elected to cut him over an incident that the alleged victim did not care that much about.
Player has a right to play for pay with another team when the trouble the guy got into was not a big enough deal to keep him from earning an NFL salary. [Reply]
This is going to energize Kelce and he will have a monster day. Kelce always has a monster day against the Chargers. I can't believe K Hunt was available to us. Stupid ass league :-) [Reply]
He might be 29. But he does not have the mileage on him of most running backs that age. All we need is one season from him. If he can even be 80% of what he was. It unlocks something our offense has been missing since 2018. [Reply]
Kareem is going to help make this OL better with his vision. This line has been opening up holes and over the last few years there have been at least 30 times I legit said “Kareem Hunt would have seen the cutback lane…KH would have had a 30 yard run on that play…”
Gonna be fun watching him work in space.
Who was it that Kareem chip blocked that he just flat out destroyed? [Reply]
Kareem said he was playing injured all last season and had to have surgery in the offseason to clear it up. And yet the guy still had eleven total touchdowns. He missed time due to the suspension, plus shared carries with Chubb so he definitely doesn't have the same miles on his motor as other RB's his age. Mostert is 32 and got 18 TD's last season. He was a back who developed late so he too doesn't have that much mile's in his legs. I honestly think Kareem is gonna shock some folks with how well he does here. [Reply]

Send him packing. Maybe he can pick up a gig working concessions for the Saints. He should have been cut year four. He can take Sky with him too. [Reply]

He was available, because 3ypc at 29 years of age at the hb position is not desirable.
Now, we know already that you're the type of guy that edits his madden players to 99 based on that ONE time they made a big play, but Kareem Hunt being on FA isn't some criminal slight.
Unless you share a crazy ass viewpoint that Clyde Edwards Helaire was destined to become the next Priest Holmes. Lmao.
The guy hasn't played a snap for KC in 6 years. Let's see what he puts on the field Sunday before we indict the entire league as dumbasses that were allowing gold jacket talent to sit on his couch in September.
Hoping he plays well, but wouldn't be shocked if it's a wet fart. [Reply]

The way Kelce has been playing, a light jog is probably what he considers "flying around". Lmmfgdao.
Listen. I love that 87 is on the KH hype train.
But lets not pretend he wasn't washing Kadarius Toneys balls on how he looked, what he was doing " oh I can't believe the giants let him out of their building."
We've heard this shit before, and the results were that we were sold a false bill of goods. So I'm happy that Kelce isn't deterred from supporting his teammates after that, but I'm not ready to buy in sight unseen.
I'd love just as much as anyone to see Kareem Hunt ripping off multiple 50+ yard tds like he did playing with Alex Smith. Maybe it was Andy's scheme forcing so many light boxes. He's certainly going to get more of those. [Reply]
