Kareem Hunt

Last week, even with Isaiah Pacheco back, Hunt retained his lead back role with a 63.6% snap rate, 15 touches, and 70 total yards. He played 75% of the team's red zone snaps. I expect Hunt to keep this role moving forward. Among 55 qualifying backs, Hunt ranks 42nd in missed tackle rate and 27th in yards after contact per attempt. Hunt is best viewed as a volume-fueled flex play this week. Since Week 9, Houston has allowed the fifth-fewest rushing yards per game, the lowest missed tackle rate, the sixth-lowest rushing success rate, and the tenth-fewest yards after contact per attempt.
