In Week 5, he carried the ball 27 times for 102 yards and a score. This week, he faces a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, who have given up the 10th-fewest rushing yards to running backs this season.
The 49ers have allowed running backs to reach 100+ yards only once (Week 2 against the Minnesota Vikings). Hunt's value may hinge on finding the end zone, but he has a decent chance to score.

He has had double-digit PPR points in both of his games this season (Weeks 4 and 5). While Hunt may not deliver RB1 production, he remains a strong RB2 or flex play. Feel confident starting him but temper expectations, as this could be a challenging game for yardage.
