BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Following Cleveland's bye in Week 5, the Browns clearly wanted to get Kareem Hunt more involved. He ended up playing 28 of the team's 76 snaps. Assumed starter Jerome Ford played 38 snaps. Ford received 17 carries to Hunt's 12. Ford was more effective with his carries, averaging 4.9 yards per attempt compared to Hunt's 3.9 average.
However, Hunt was the player who ended up finding the end zone on a 16-yard scamper. Both players ran 13 routes, but Hunt received one more target (3-2) than Ford. They both caught all of their respective targets, but Hunt finished with 24 receiving yards to Ford's seven.

If this utilization continues, Hunt should be viewed as an RB3. Ford handled more of the team's third-down plays, but Hunt played on more short-yardage plays. If Ford were to get hurt, Hunt would be the biggest beneficiary.
