The Detroit Lions are going to be relying on Jahmyr Gibbs to lead the backfield with David Montgomery now traded to the Houston Texans.
Gibbs will have a chance to lead the NFL in yards from scrimmage, as his value as a receiver and rusher is extremely high. Behind him, the Lions now have Isaiah Pacheco in the backfield.
But he might not be the only former Kansas City Chiefs RB to join the Lions this offseason. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Kareem Hunt was hosted by the Lions on a free-agent visit on Tuesday, August 25.
"Free-agent RB Kareem Hunt visited today with the Detroit Lions," Schefter reported Tuesday afternoon.
