According to a report, the Cleveland Brown's running back is available at a reasonable price.

Hunt can be had for a fourth-round pick according to other teams.

With Nick Chubb leading Cleveland's backfield, Hunt has become expendable.

Hunt has rushed 66 times for 263 yards and three touchdown this season. He caught 15 passes and scored a touchdown.

After playing for the Kansas City Chiefs in his first two seasons, the former Toledo star moved to Cleveland and has been there ever since.

In his first season in KC, the third-round draft pick registered 1,782 total yards and 11 touchdown, as well as 1, 202 total yards and 14 scores in 11 games.

Kansas City released Hunt after video of him kicking a woman at a hotel became public.

He signed with Cleveland prior to the season and has been a quality complement to Chubb ever since, but he may now be expendable because of his contract.

Hunt is a free agent. Assuming he wants the chance to be a No. 1 back, he is likely to be a prime trade candidate.

While teams may like his base salary, his roster bonus of $200,000 per game could be a problem. The restructured bonuses could be used to make the deal more palatable.

The Cleveland Indians are in danger of falling out of playoff contention until quarterback Deshaun Watson returns from a suspension.

Since D'Ernest Johnson has shown the ability to be productive when given a chance to play, the Browns may not miss a beat if they trade Hunt.

If that is the case, the team would be wise to pick up a future asset or two for a player who isn't likely to be a part of the team in the future.
