KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Running back Kareem Hunt will not play in the Chiefs’ next game after video footage published Friday showed him shoving and kicking a woman in a hallway.
The video of Hunt, obtained and published by TMZ Sports, is related to a February 2018 altercation on an early Saturday morning at The Metropolitan at the 9, Hunt’s hotel apartment in downtown Cleveland. Police were called and a report was previously made, but video footage was not available until it was published by TMZ.
In a statement, the NFL said Hunt was placed on the NFL’s Commissioner Exempt List and that it “will include a review of the new information made public today” in the investigation it first opened in February.
