Browns' Kareem Hunt (ankle) expected to play in Week 17
Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (ankle) "looked good in practice" Friday and is expected to play in the team's Monday night game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
What It Means:
Hunt has missed the Browns' past two games with an ankle injuries, but is now trending towards suiting up for tonight's tilt against the Steelers. Hunt also spent time on the reserve/COVID list during his absence, so it's possible he sees a smaller role than usual and spells teammate Nick Chubb in his return.
Our models currently project Hunt for 4.6 fantasy points in his return to the field. The Steelers have allowed an average of 190 rushing yards per game to opposing offenses over their past three games and could be in line for another tough night against the Browns' elite running backs.
