Chiefs sign RB Kareem Hunt to 53-man roster

Sep 24, 2024

The Chiefs have signed RB Kareem Hunt to their 53-man roster and waived RB Keontay Ingraham.

So, Hunt now figures into the RB rotation alongside Carson Steele and Samaje Perine.

Fantasy Impact:

Owners of any of the three RBs may have to take a wait-and-see approach as we head into Week 4. It seems like Hunt could end up eating into Steele's workload the most, but it all remains to be seen. Steele led the way in Week 3 with 17 carries to Perine's 6. Perine did have three receptions. But, It seems like Hunt could eat into any of those touches. Steele seems like the safest play among the three until we see more. The Chiefs are at the Chargers in Week 4.

TE Evan Engram out for the season. Surgery coming on labrum in shoulder.

Related Players: Brenton Strange, Luke Farrell, Josiah Deguara

Fantasy Impact:

Bummer for Engram, who will finish the season as the TE16 with 7.3 half-PPR PPG in nine weeks.

It's unlikely that Strange pops up as a TE streamer through the remainder of the season, with no more byes on the horizon.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown's practice window to open "Friday or Monday"

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

Fantasy Impact:

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker misses second straight practice

For a second straight day today, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III didn’t practice due to his calf injury.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like things should be cleared out for Charbonnet once again in what could be a very close game against the Packers. If Walker misses Week 15, fire Charbs up as a high-end RB2.
