While the drama surrounding QB Deshaun Watson continues to have no resolution, the Cleveland Browns must deal with another piece of drama. RB Kareem Hunt has begun to sit out team parts of practice after over a week of training camp. Initially, Hunt was asking for a new contract or to be traded.
We covered all the details in a piece earlier this morning as neither of Hunt’s requests seemed likely to be met. Hunt has too much value to the team for 2022 but the team’s commitment to Nick Chubb and others makes an extension unlikely. His value to the team, and likely lower value in a trade, make a trade unlikely.
