Browns' Kareem Hunt cleared to practice during suspension - Sportsnet.ca

The suspended running back is practicing with teammates for the first time since August after being cleared to return by the NFL while serving the final two games of his eight-game ban for two violent off-field altercations.

Hunt previously was prohibited from being at the team’s facility, but the league has allowed him to return. "We have been monitoring his progress during the suspension," league spokesman Brian McCarthy said in an email to The Associated Press. "He is permitted to return to team activities, including practice. He is not permitted to play in or attend games until after the team’s eighth game. The time with the team enables him to reacclimate himself and engage in conditioning work and practices."Hunt looked agile during drills in the portion of the workout open to media.

While he was with Kansas City, Hunt was caught on video pushing and kicking a woman during an argument in a Cleveland hotel. The Chiefs released the 2017 league rushing champion following the incident and the Browns signed him in February.Hunt has been receiving counselling since joining the Browns, who were hoping his relationship with general manager John Dorsey would keep him out of further trouble. Dorsey drafted Hunt when he was the Chiefs’ GM.

Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield returned to practice after resting a bruised left hip last week. Mayfield got hurt when he got hit while scrambling in a loss to Seattle.
