Though it is only Wednesday, it has already been a long week for the Cleveland Browns.
Losing their star running back Nick Chubb to a season-ending injury on Monday night has a way of making the days more stressful.
24 hours after beginning the process of seeking additional running back help to back up new RB1 Jerome Ford, the Browns have found their man…again.
After reporting to Berea for a tryout on Tuesday, Kareem Hunt had to wait just a little while longer to find out the team was prepared to re-sign him to a one-year deal reportedly worth up to $4 million.

Hunt and Chubb are good friends so this is likely a bittersweet moment for him.
These are not the circumstances he envisioned for a reunion with the Browns.
Hunt is a running back who can act as a receiver which will give Deshaun Watson another weapon to utilize in the offense.

In his four seasons with the Browns, he rushed for 1,874 yards and had 973 yards receiving.
Obviously, Hunt is familiar with the offense, the personnel, and with the Browns’ legendary running backs coach Stump Mitchell.
