🔥BREAKING: Chiefs Make Huge Announcement on RB Kareem Hunt Before Cowboys Game 👇

The Kansas City Chiefs faced one of their toughest challenges of the 2025 NFL season in Week 12, as they had to go up against a very good Indianapolis Colts squad, led by a veteran quarterback Daniel Jones and NFL MVP candidate in running back Jonathan Taylor.

Although the Colts appeared to be in control throughout the majority of the game in front of the diehard Chiefs fans at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, Patrick Mahomes and company were resilient, forcing overtime and ultimately coming out on top due to a game-winning field goal.

Along with Mahomes throwing for 352 yards, veteran running back Kareem Hunt had himself a game and was a big reason the team is now over .500 at 6-5.

Kareem Hunt Earns AFC Offensive Player of the Week Honors

Hunt racked up 130 yards and a rushing touchdown on 30 carries during the overtime win over the Colts, which was enough to be named AFC Offensive Player of the Week, as the team announced on Wednesday ahead of Thanksgiving.

In 11 games played so far this season for the Chiefs, the Toledo product has scored as many rushing touchdowns as he did in the 13 games he played during the 2024 campaign. He’s also added a receiving touchdowns with 549 yards from scrimmage.

Although Hunt isn’t the same player that he was as a rookie with the Chiefs, where he exploded on the NFL scene racking up 1,782 yards from scrimmage and 11 total touchdowns, he’s still played an important role in his second stint in Kansas City.

It remains to be seen how Hunt’s role will be impacted when Isiah Pacheco returns for the Thanksgiving Day clash with the Dallas Cowboys on the road at AT&T Stadium. The Chiefs also brought in former Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce this week, who was added to the practice squad.

Final Stretch Crucial for Chiefs

With the win over the Colts last week, the Chiefs were finally able to get over .500 at 6-5, but how the rest of the season will pan out or if Kansas City can clinch a playoff spot remains to be seen.

Andy Reid’s squad will face some tough challenges in the final stretch of the 2025 NFL regular season. The storied franchise will take on the high-powered offense of the Cowboys on Thanksgiving followed by matchups against the resurgent Houston Texans (Week 14), division rival Los Angeles Chargers (Week 15), Tennessee Titans (Week 16), Denver Broncos (Week 17) and Las Vegas Raiders (Week 18).

Although there’s a few potentially easy matchups in this final stretch, namely the games against the Titans and Raiders, every other matchup will be tough, as they are all potential playoff teams playing for a spot in the postseason and seeding in the AFC.

The matchup with the Broncos will likely be the most interesting, considering how close the last meeting was between the two AFC West squads. It’ll be interesting to see how things pan out for the Chiefs and whether they can be playoff bound yet again or see their decade-long streak of postseason appearances come to an end.
