The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... Per PhillyVoice.com's Jimmy Kempski, Hunt would be an excellent fit in the Eagles' offense, as a multi-dimensional weapon out of the backfield.
Diehards Line:
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, "multiple teams have expressed interest in Hunt, and it now appears the former Chiefs running back will have a job 'sooner rather than later.'" Hunt was released by the Chiefs during the season in the aftermath of the release of a video showing Hunt pushing and kicking a woman. Josh Adams and Wendell Smallwood led the Eagles in carries this season. That's not good enough. Corey Clement will return, and he is a nice complementary third-down back. Otherwise, Darren Sproles will turn 36 this offseason, and even if Jay Ajayi returns in 2019, the team can't count on a guy who already has chronic knee issues, who now also has a torn ACL on top of it. As Kempski suggested, a good running back could take the offense to the next level, and that could be Hunt. ... Stay tuned.
