CAREER SNAPSHOT:

• Kendall Hunter played college ball for the OSU Cowboys from 2007-10.
• In both 2008 and 2010 he rushed for over 1,500 yards, and had over 20 catches.
• He was named as a finalist for the Doak Walker Award in his senior season, and finished his career with 4,181 yards and 37 TDs on 708 carries.
• Due primarily to his size, 5’7″, 199, Hunter wouldn’t be selected until the 3rd round of the 2011 draft by the San Fransisco 49ers.
• During his time in the league from 2011-2015, Hunter saw action in 45 contests, starting 1 in his rookie year.
• He had a career high 473 yards on 112 carries and 16 catches for 195 yards.

• Was released after the 2014 season, when he spent the entire year on IR due to a knee injury.
• Signed with the Saints in 2015, late in the year to spell injured Mark Ingram.
• Briefly joined the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL in 2017, but retired soon thereafter.

NOTES:

Who knows how Kendall would’ve performed if he was shoved into a role with a team that used him as a primary back in a run n shoot or spread set up? He definitely had a set of wheels on him, and some great college number to prove it.
