Kareem Hunt

RB · #129

FA · RB · Age 31

◆FLEX

Kareem Hunt's recent release leaves him with a trailing carry share of just 21.7%, signaling diminished rushing volume in his last game before becoming an unsigned free agent.

Role & volume
Before his release, Hunt averaged a modest 42% snap share and a 5% target share over the past four games, indicating reduced involvement in both rushing and receiving roles.
Projected role
As an unsigned free agent, Hunt's projected role is uncertain; however, our value ranks him as RB38, suggesting he remains a candidate for significant touches but with no guaranteed team or role.
Range (floor–ceiling)
Given his recent trend of declining usage and current unsigned status, Hunt's floor is likely low due to the risk of limited opportunities, while his ceiling hinges on finding a new team willing to give him substantial rushing volume.

Risk & Opportunity Analysis (3 flags)

Risk Flags

2
  • Free Agency

    Hunt cleared waivers out of Kansas City earlier in 2026 and remained unsigned through training camp and final roster cuts, leaving him with no path to touches unless a team calls.

  • Roster Competition

    A deep pool of similarly aging, unsigned veteran backs (Mixon, Gibson, Mostert, Ekeler, Akers) is competing for the same handful of emergency openings, limiting how much leverage or opportunity Hunt can command even if a job appears.

Opportunity Flags

1
  • Usage & Volume

    Target share climbed across his final four 2025 games (7% to 13%) even as snaps and carries fell, suggesting retained receiving chops that could appeal to a team needing a third-down or injury-fill option.
