Kareem Hunt
2025 Season Outlooks
Hunt might be among the least appealing late-round picks you could make in Fantasy drafts this fall. The touchdown-dependent 30-year-old really only put up decent stats last year while Isiah Pacheco was sidelined. Pacheco is healthy and the Chiefs added ex-49er Elijah Mitchell and drafted SMU scatback Brashard Smith to their RB room, crowding Pacheco's path to even being decent for our purposes. You can almost certainly pass on Hunt in drafts and pick him up off waivers in-season if he ends up carrying value beyond the occasional touchdown plunge.
Hunt re-signed with the Chiefs following a successful reunion with the team last season. He stepped in for an injured Isiah Pacheco in Week 4 and went on to average 21.5 touches, 89.0 yards and 14.8 fantasy points over the next eight games. Pacheco returned in Week 13 and then neither were viable fantasy options from that point forward, as they were near even in snaps, carries and targets, with Samaje Perine also in the mix as a passing-down specialist. Hunt was not particularly effective as a rusher or receiver and he's now 30 years old, so it's fair to expect a healthy Pacheco to lead this backfield in 2025. Hunt is only a late-round consideration.
