Kareem Hunt was a key player in the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game. He now figures to play an instrumental role in the team’s game plan for its Super Bowl 59 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Hunt was listed on the Chiefs’ Wednesday injury report due to an issue with his quad. However, it was estimated that Hunt would have been a full participant in practice, had the team run drills on Wednesday, and he was removed from Kansas City’s injury reports for the rest of the week.

Super Bowl 59 is about second chances for two members of the Kansas City Chiefs. In the case of Kareem Hunt, who began his career in Kansas City, it is a second opportunity with the team that drafted him.
