Kareem Hunt rushed 17 times for 64 yards and a touchdown in Kansas City’s AFC Championship win over the Bills.
Prior to that game, Hunt rushed eight times for 44 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs’ Divisional Round win over the Texans, adding a two-yard reception.
The odds are good Hunt will score at least one touchdown for a payout potential of $140 for every $100 bet.
Should he score two touchdowns, the payout will be $700 for every $100 bet, three or more pays out $5400.
Hunt hadn't played in a game or practiced with teammates in the eight months before arriving in Kansas City earlier in the season. Hunt acknowledged it was more than he expected from himself.
Hunt was the Chiefs' leading rusher with 69 yards in their Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, then had his first 100-yard game since 2020 and scored a touchdown in Monday night's victory over the New Orleans Saints.
"I guess it's always a part of you, [after] not playing for a while and then coming back and playing, [wondering] 'Just how are you going to play?'" Hunt said. "So I just went out there and I continued to just be myself. I know what I'm good at doing and some of my weaknesses."
