KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- While the Kansas City Chiefs were going through training camp this summer, Kareem Hunt went through a workout routine on his own hundreds of miles away.

Hunt met his former track coach, Matt Luck, four times a week at Willoughby South High School outside of Cleveland. They would set up cones representing defenders at various spots on the football field and run plays, Luck as the quarterback and handing off or throwing to Hunt, the running back.

He would make reads on the cones, as he would with defenders in a real game, and then cuts based on their positions, with an NFL limit of 40 seconds in between plays.
