The attention to Kareem Hunt's return to the Kansas City Chiefs has momentarily made many forget that a running back is urgently needed to play against the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday. Hunt isn't ruled out as an option,

The Kansas City Chiefs surprised the football world by welcoming back former draft pick and Pro Bowler Kareem Hunt. The veteran running signed a practice squad contract on Tuesday as additional insurance following the Week 2 injury to Isiah Pacheco.

However, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid announced a very different plan for Hunt on Wednesday. "We'll get him in there and get him some work. Kind of get him back in the swing of playing and we'll just see," Reid told reporters. "We've got to get him in a position to where he's ready to play either this, next week or the following week."
