Breaking: Kareem Hunt has asked the #Browns to trade him -- and they've told him no; his best strategy would be to kill it for them this season and earn his next contract https://t.co/xt3anSzA1o

Fantasy Impact:

It was reported Saturday that Kareem Hunt wanted the Browns to either give him a new contract or trade him, and it seems like he has now officially chosen the latter. While Cleveland has no plans of moving the star RB at the moment, a trade to a team where he could be the true starter would be magnificent for his fantasy value that is currently capped due to fellow RB Nick Chubb. This situation is one for fantasy managers to closely monitor as training camp and the preseason continue.
