Kareem Hunt Week 3 Outlook -

By Pat Fitzmaurice (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 23rd 2021, 11:17am EDT

The Browns' running game will be tested by a Bears defense that has thus far allowed 71.5 rushing yards per game and 3.3 yards per carry, doing a reasonably good job of keeping Darrell Henderson and Joe Mixon in check in the first two weeks. The Bears have allowed only three receptions to opposing RBs, but the Cleveland backs don't really need passing-game production to succeed in a given week. Chubb is averaging a ridiculous 6.8 yards per carry, has three TD runs and is the RB4 in fantasy scoring (half-point PPR). We haven't seen Hunt do much in the passing game yet (4-30-0), but he had a TD run against the Chiefs in Week 1 and had 13 carries for 51 yards in last week's run-heavy win over the Texans. Same old, same old: Chubb is a midrange RB1, Hunt a lower-end RB2.
