In Week Two of the 2024 season, Chiefs starting halfback Isiah Pacheco went down with a fractured fibula. What seemed like a major blow to the team at the time then turned into a blessing in disguise.

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.
