Last night the Cleveland Browns took on a division rival, The Cincinnati Bengals in a prime-time showdown. The Browns played some great football throughout all four quarters and were able to walk away with yet another win against Joe Burrow and his Bengles with a final score of 32-13.
After the game Brown’s running back Kareem Hunt got dressed facing his locker and when it was time to speak to the media he revealed a Joker mask that he had worn into the building before the game.
Hunt went on to address the recent trade rumors evolving himself all while wearing the mask. Hunt had a very simple answer as he said “I mean, I’m down for whatever, man,” Hunt said after Cleveland’s 32-13 win over Cincinnati. “I’m a football player and this is a business. So I’m ready to do whatever they decide with me. That’s either going somewhere else or here, anything it doesn’t matter. I love the game of football.” as reported by NFL.com.
Will Kareem Be Traded?
Kareem Hunt has been a part of the best Running Back duo in the NFL for a few years now but he continues to get outshined by Nick Chubb. It seems that Kareem may finally be ready to step out of Chubb’s shadow and forge his own path on a new team. What would the Browns want in return for their RB2?
For the most part, the Browns need draft picks as it took a lot of those to secure Deshaun Watson over the offseason. There have been many teams interested in Kareem Hunt, teams like the Eagles and the Bills have called about the Running Back. It will be very interesting to see where Hunt will end up in the near future. With the NFL trade deadline today we could see Hunt on the move in the next few hours.
It has been an interesting year for the Cleveland Browns. First the controversial trade for Deshaun Wattson, then his suspension, the play of Jacoby, and the defensive struggles. Last night all those problems washed away as the defense had their best game of the season and Jacoby looked great.
Can The Browns Hold On?
This Browns team could easily scrape into the Playoffs and by that time Wattson will be back and in the Playoffs, anything can happen. The Cleveland Browns are not out of it yet as Watson will play their last three division games and maybe Jacoby can pull this team to at least five wins before Deshaun’s return.
