Fantasy Impact
Earlier tonight Hunt was placed on the Commissioner Exempt List. He was (and still is) likely facing a lengthy suspension. Instead of waiting around the Chiefs have decided to cut bait with the second year running back. It’s unlikely any team signs him anytime soon. Spencer Ware will be the Chiefs starting RB for the duration of 2018.
