Kareem Hunt presents serious quandary for NFL teams scouring waiver wire

Kareem Hunt led the NFL in rushing last season with 1,327 yards. He added another 455 receiving yards through the air. In 2018, Hunt was on pace to once again cross over 1,700 yards from scrimmage while showing an increased love for the end zone with a pace for 20 total scores.

Hunt’s base salary for the calendar year? $575,250.

For just a minute, set aside the TMZ video, the alleged second offseason altercation (the one from June), or the resulting criticism of Hunt, the Chiefs or the NFL. On paper, this is a dream scenario for a team atop the waiver wire.
