Steelers need to beat Browns, get help to complete historic bounceback

The Steelers not only need a win Sunday against the Browns but also losses by the Patriots and Dolphins to make the postseason.

JANUARY 6, 2023

Three touches in win Hunt had two carries for zero yards and caught is only target for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Commanders in Week 17.

Impact This was a season-low in touches and yards for Hunt, who played 18 snaps for a 32-percent share in what could have been his penultimate game in a Browns uniform. His contract is up after this season, and the organization appears to have shifted to the future after it was eliminated from the postseason in Week 16. Rookie running back Jerome Ford was given a season-high seven offensive snaps and had five carries for nine yards, a sign that he will become the top backup to Nick Chubb in 2023.

Limited to 22 total yards in loss Hunt rushed seven times for eight yards and brought in all three targets for 14 yards in the Browns' 17-10 loss to the Saints on Saturday.

Impact The weather was conducive to a big workload for the ground attack, but Hunt still logged 17 fewer carries than backfield mate Nick Chubb. Hunt's carry total was his second highest since Week 5 and his catch tally a high-water mark since Week 8, but his game-to-game workload is anything but trustworthy heading into a Week 17 road matchup against the Commanders on Sunday, Jan. 1.

Twenty-seven total yards Hunt had four carries for 24 yards and caught his lone target for three yards in Saturday's 13-3 win over the Ravens in Week 15.

Impact Hunt's five touches were the second fewest of the season, and he was held to under 30 combined yards for the third time in the last four games. The 27-year-old back hasn't found the end zone since Week 7.

DECEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Six touches in loss Hunt rushed four times for six yards and caught two of four targets for another six yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to Cincinnati.

Impact The Bengals did a good job of taking away the Browns' running game, and Hunt's 12 combined yards was his second fewest in 13 games this season. He had three red-zone carries and a target, giving him 24 rushes and six targets inside the opponents' 20-yard line on the year, so Nick Chubb's backup could still be a fantasy factor despite his declining workload.

Tallies 74 total yards Hunt rushed the ball nine times for 56 yards in Sunday's 27-14 win over the Texans. He added two receptions on three targets for 18 yards.

Impact While a modest total, Hunt's nine carries marked his highest total since Week 8. He made the most of his opportunity by ripping off gains of 15 and 11 yards to also tally his highest yardage total on the ground since Week 2. Hunt has only three total touchdowns on the season, which makes him difficult to trust on a weekly basis combined with his relatively limited involvement in the Browns' offense.

Six touches in win Hunt had five carries for 15 yards and caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 23-17 overtime win over Tampa Bay in Week 12.

Impact While it was a good day for the ground game as a whole -- 189 yards, 5.6 YPC -- it was another quiet game for Hunt, who has 21 combined yards or fewer in the four of the last six games. He opened the season averaging 12 carries and 15 touches through the first five games but those averages dropped to six carries and eight touches in the subsequent six weeks. His role as a receiving back could improve beginning Week 13 at Houston, the first game quarterback Deshaun Watson is eligible to play following an 11-game suspension.

NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet day in loss Hunt carried five times for 32 yards and caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Bills.

Impact Buffalo stifled the Browns' vaunted rushing attack, although Hunt found some room on his limited touches as a runner. While it's been mainly the Nick Chubb show in the backfield, a gifted receiver like Hunt could experience a renaissance when Deshaun Watson becomes available starting in Week 13.

NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Minimal impact in loss Hunt rushed six times for nine yards and secured his only target for 10 yards in the Browns' 39-17 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Impact Hunt's disappointing afternoon saw him partly limited by game script, as even backfield leader Nick Chubb logged only 11 carries. Hunt's single-digit rushing yardage tally was his second in the last three games, but he'll hope for more opportunity in a Week 12 road matchup against the Bills.
