Chiefs’ Kareem Hunt sent home after assault video release

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has reportedly been sent home from team facilities following the release of a video in which he can be seen hitting and kicking a woman in a February incident.

The clip, which came from an Ohio hotel hallway camera, was published by TMZ on Friday afternoon.

The NFL has yet to take any action against Hunt, though the likely scenario would see the running back go on the commissioner’s exempt list, keeping him from joining the Chiefs for practices and games until an investigation is complete.

Kansas City (9-2) plays in Oakland (2-9) on Sunday.
