Is Kareem Hunt playing tonight? Why Chiefs RB is off to quiet start vs. Jaguars | Sporting News Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt is off to a lackluster start to the Week 5 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Here's what's...

OCTOBER 7, 2025 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Struggles with increased volume Hunt rushed the ball 13 times for 34 yards in Sunday's 37-20 win over Baltimore. He added one reception on one target for 13 yards.

Impact Hunt had split the rushing workload almost exactly evenly with Isaiah Pacheco through the first three games of the season. However, Hunt clearly took over as the lead back Sunday, earning 14 touches compared to Pacheco's nine. However, Hunt had a poor day by averaging only 2.6 yards per attempt with a long gain of seven yards. He appears to have the trust of the coaching staff, which could insulate his role, but he has yet to reach 35 rushing yards in a game this season.

Scores rush TD in Week 3 Hunt carried the ball 10 times for 34 rushing yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 22-9 win over the Giants.

Impact Hunt scored Kansas City's only rushing touchdown versus New York, but he was outproduced by Isaiah Pacheco (45 rushing yards) on an identical amount of carries. Of course, as neither Hunt or Pacheco has yet demonstrated a reason to run away with the No. 1 backfield role, they remain primed for a timeshare entering Week 4, as the Chiefs prepare for a difficult home matchup against the Ravens. In deeper fantasy formats, Hunt possesses limited appeal as a TD-dependent flex option.

Gains 34 yards on nine touches Hunt took eight carries for 31 yards and caught his only target for three yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Hunt continued to split backfield work with Isiah Pacheco, seeing nine combined touches to the starter's 11 Sunday. The 30-year-old Hunt was more efficient with his workload, but neither back finished with stat lines to write home about. Hunt carries some deep-league value in his current shared role, but there isn't enough upside in the veteran to trust in standard formats when the Chiefs visit the Giants in Week 3.

If Chiefs Call Dolphins About Tyreek Hill, Why Stop There? Why Not De'Von Achane?

It would be logical for Kansas City to inquire about ex-Chief Tyreek Hill. But there's a Miami running back who could fill a bigger need.

If Chiefs Call Dolphins About Tyreek Hill, Why Stop There? Why Not De'Von Achane?

Ties Pacheco for rushes and targets Hunt rushed five times for 16 yards and secured two of three targets for 10 yards during the Chiefs' 27-21 loss to the Chargers on Friday night.

Impact Hunt and Pacheco split touches evenly Week 1, but neither found much room to run against a stout Los Angeles defensive front, as both finished with under 30 total offensive yards. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes in fact led the ground game in terms of both opportunities and production, rushing six times for 57 yards and one score. Hunt profiles to operate as the No. 2 backfield option behind Pacheco at home against the Eagles in Week 2, a Super Bowl rematch that could see the Chiefs lean increasingly on the rushing attack with Rashee Rice (suspension) out and the status of Xavier Worthy (shoulder) uncertain.

Active for preseason finale Hunt (quadriceps) took three carries for 15 yards and failed to bring in his only target in Friday's 29-27 preseason loss to Chicago.

Impact Hunt was a game-time decision for Friday's contest after dealing with a quad contusion during the practice week. The veteran back was able to suit up and got mixed in with the first-team offense behind starter Isiah Pacheco. The latter is expected to handle lead-back duties to begin the regular season with Hunt seeing work as a receiver and on goal-line situations.

Impact Hunt is an established veteran who boasts significant familiarity with Kansas City's rushing scheme, so would make sense for the team to hold him out of exhibition action if he's anything less than 100 percent healthy. In limited action during the Chiefs' preseason opener against Arizona, Hunt rushed twice for 12 yards and secured one of two targets for five yards, entering the game after Isiah Pacheco. His primary competition for the No. 2 backfield gig is Elijah Mitchell.

Three touches in preseason opener Hunt rushed twice for 12 yards and brought in one of two targets for five yards during the Chiefs' 20-17 preseason loss to the Cardinals on Saturday night.

Impact Hunt followed Isiah Pacheco into the game and played on the Chiefs' second possession, when he logged all three of his touches. The veteran back enjoyed his return to Kansas City last season and proved he had plenty left in the tank by recording 904 total yards and seven rushing TDs across 13 regular-season games. After re-signing on a one-year deal this offseason, Hunt once again figures in for a likely No. 2 role as long as he can hold off offseason addition Elijah Mitchell.
