Kareem Hunt With A Chance To Explode Against Baltimore In Week 4

Friday, September 26, 11:51 PM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will take on the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday in Week 4. Hunt handled 10 carries for 34 yards and a touchdown as well as one catch for 10 yards in last week's 22-9 win over the New York Giants. Hunt has continued to receive a nearly identical workload to Isiah Pacheco, but Hunt has averaged two more PPR points per game this season. The 29-year-old has been the preferred back on passing downs and short-yardage situations, putting him in position to catch passes and score goal-line touchdowns. Hunt has been inefficient on the ground, averaging just 3.5 yards per carry, but he could improve that average this week against Baltimore. The Ravens have allowed the most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season, making this the most advantageous matchup at the position. The Ravens also have the highest scoring offense this season, which should put the Chiefs in more passing situations. Hunt is ranked RB34 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, putting him two spots ahead of Pacheco and in the RB3/Flex conversation. If Hunt can catch multiple passes and handle goal-line touches again, he could finish the week with double-digit fantasy points.

Emanuel Wilson Only has One Carry as RB2 in Week 1

Monday, September 8, 12:31 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson was expected to have an elevated role as the RB2 behind starter Josh Jacobs in the Week 1 divisional clash against the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field, but he ended up with just one carry for a four-yard gain in the 27-13 victory. He was not targeted in the passing game. Meanwhile, fellow backup Chris Brooks also had one carry for one yard and caught his only target for a two-yard pickup. Jacobs dominated backfield touches for the Pack, handing 19 rushing attempts for 66 yards and a touchdown and also catching his only target for four yards. Wilson and Brooks could be more involved going forward with MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) out to begin the year, but this certainly wasn't a good sign for their involvement behind a healthy Jacobs in 2025.
