It’s not the typical “Rookie of the Year” Award that you think of when the final awards are named, since those are known as the Associated Press Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year awards in the NFL. However, the first such Rookie of the Year award is out from the Pro Football Writers of America, and Kareem Hunt has been given the honor, a potential foretelling that Hunt might fare well in other such categories, too.
Hunt was the Kansas City Chiefs third round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft as a well-rounded running back from the University of Toledo.
