Chiefs release Kareem Hunt

In the latest twist in the Kareem Hunt saga, the Chiefs released a statement via Twitter that they are releasing the young running back effective immediately. The team advised that during their initial investigation they spoke with Hunt who was not truthful in his statements to the team. Hunt will become available on waivers immediately, though a team is not likely to claim him anytime soon with a pending investigation and suspension looming.

Hunt later released an apology to ESPN apologizing for his actions and hoping to move on from the incident. His future in the league is a mystery, but he will have to serve his suspension and reform his image before any return to the league would be considered. Hunt will likely have to go through an anger management course and volunteer both time and money to a domestic violence organization to show he has learned his lesson and is truly remorseful for his actions. Only then would a team be willing to take the public relations hit that signing Hunt will likely bring. Otherwise his chances of returning will be grim.
