Kareem Hunt Looking For Extension To Stay In Cleveland: ‘I Was Born And Raised Here’

A third-round selection in 2017 by the Kansas City Chiefs, Kareem Hunt was originally drafted by general manager Jon Dorsey, who eventually would also bring him to the Cleveland Browns after he was released following video showing him assaulting a woman in a hotel lobby. While Dorsey is long gone, Hunt still remains, entering his fourth season in Cleveland—and, he’s hoping, not the last.

He told Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com that he has approached the Browns front office about receiving a contract extension to remain with the team beyond the 2022 season, even after they have already paid Pro Bowl running back Nick Chubb.
