What It Means:

Hunt was suspended for the first eight games and some of that time was spent recovering from sports hernia surgery. He's expected to play a change-of-pace role that will complement Nick Chubb over the second half of the season, rather than cutting into the workhorse's volume. Dontrell Hilliard, meanwhile, will likely fall out of the picture.

Hunt is the RB51 in numberFire's rest-of-season fantasy rankings. Our models project him for 39.7 carries, 178.7 rushing yards, 10.2 catches, 105.3 receiving yards, and 1.78 touchdowns in the remaining eight games.
