Kareem Hunt wants out of Cleveland, but the Browns do not want to trade him

The Cleveland Browns have had a rough off-season and it is not going to get any better. Now, their star running back wants out. No, I am not talking about Nick Chubb, but Kareem Hunt.

Hunt recently requested a trade out of Cleveland but the team is not going to trade him. Hunt has one year remaining on his contract.

#Browns RB Kareem Hunt has requested a trade out of Cleveland, per @MaryKayCabot, but the team has already told him they won’t trade him. Hunt is entering the final year of his contract and has been looking for a new deal.

Kareem Hunt did not participate in reps yesterday, and Kevin Stefanski the team’s head coach quickly made sure that was nipped in the bud.

#Browns Kevin Stefanski won’t say much about Kareem Hunt’s trade demand or holdout of team drills, but acknowledged a healthy player is not permitted to sit out drills. Wouldn’t say if they’re fining him (but they are).

If a team loses a running back in the pre-season I would not be shocked to see the Browns get a call. The Browns would be silly not to listen at this point, especially if Watson is suspended for more than 6 games.
