Kareem Hunt tweaks ankle, will be "fine"
Chiefs focus on run game against Bengals

| Hunt, to be sure, looked great. His first carry went for 5 yards, and he sprinkled in a pair of darting, dashing 8- and 11-yard runs where he showed off the vision, balance and burst that caused the Chiefs to trade up for him in this year’s draft. He kept that up through the second quarter - all the while flashing upside as a receiver, as well - and finished the game with eight carries for 40 yards (a 5.0 average) and three catches for 23 yards before departing because of a tweaked ankle.

FFToday's Take: The Chiefs focused on the run game Saturday night against the Bengals giving starter Spencer Ware most of the night off, allowing rookie Kareem Hunt and veteran C.J. Spiller to rack up 67 yards on 14 carries combined. Hunt left in the 2nd quarter after tweaking his ankle, but head coach Andy Reid expects him to be "fine". Spiller and Charcandrick West (7-113) are battling for the No.3 spot.
