Source: Kareem Hunt back with Browns after Nick Chubb injury

BEREA, Ohio -- The Cleveland Browns are bringing back Kareem Hunt to help patch up their backfield in the wake of the season-ending injury to All-Pro Nick Chubb, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday.

Hunt agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $4 million, the source told Schefter.

Hunt and Chubb played the previous four seasons together, forming one of the NFL's most potent running back duos.

Now, Hunt will team up with second year running back Jerome Ford, who replaced Hunt as Chubb's backup to begin this season.
