Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (thigh) returned to practice on Thursday for Week 8 versus the Seattle Seahawks.
The Browns held Hunt out for the first practice of the week, but this puts him on track to play Sunday. On the other hand, Jerome Ford (ankle) remained sidelined, putting Pierre Strong Jr. in place to be Hunt's backfield partner in Seattle.
Hunt ($7,000) is the RB25 in numberFire's Week 8 PPR rankings and our models project him for 10.8 FanDuel points, with 13.4 rush attempts, 57.9 rushing yards, 1.8 receptions, and 12.2 receiving yards. Strong ($5,300) is the RB32 and projected for 8.8 FanDuel points on 13.4 touches. The Seahawks are ranked 13th in FanDuel points allowed per game to running backs this season and their run defense is 5th in our opponent-adjusted NEP rankings.
