Who Should I Start? Kareem Hunt or A.J. Dillon

Saturday, September 30, 12:29 AM

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (groin, ribs) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Hunt did not practice to open the week and was limited on Thursday and Friday, but the team gave him the green light for the divisional matchup. Hunt resigned with the Browns after Nick Chubb's catastrophic knee injury in Week 2. In Week 3, he had seven touches for a total of 45 yards from scrimmage. He will continue operating as the backup to Jerome Ford (shoulder) but may see his workload expand as he gets back into game shape. For Week 4, Hunt is a deep-league flex play at best.

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will take on the division-rival Detroit Lions on Thursday night. The 25-year-old has been incredibly underwhelming to start the season despite not having Aaron Jones (hamstring) in the past two weeks. Jones has a shot to play this week after being listed as questionable on the final injury report. Typically, Dillon would be a potential flex option with Jones active in a matchup against Detroit. However, the Lions' defense against the run in 2023 has been great, allowing just 13 points per game to the position. Even if Jones sits, the Packers' No. 2 back has done nothing with his increased role to give fantasy managers confidence in flexing him. Dillon is an easy fade in Week 4.
