The Cleveland Browns' new signee, Kareem Hunt, is one of his generation's most dynamic running backs. The former Pro Bowler knows how to make a highlight reel play, and the Browns will be his new home for at least one year.

Hunt has a new chance, coming in to replace the injured Nick Chubb on a one-year deal. In this piece, we will look at RB's family, shining a light on his father and mother.

Who is Kareem Hunt's father, Kareem Hunt Sr.
Kareem's father is Kareem Hunt Sr. Kareem Sr. is from Cleveland, Ohio, USA, and was born on June 10, 1966. He is based in Cleveland, Ohio, which is convenient, considering his son represents the Cleveland Browns.
According to Kareem Sr's Facebook page, he is currently single and can be regularly seen at Browns' games cheering for his son.
Kareem Sr. has a chequered past with the legal system. According to USA Today, the older Hunt has been arrested numerous times in Lorain County, including multiple times for drug-related offenses and domestic violence.
Furthermore, in 2021, the older Hunt came on record to criticize then-Browns QB Baker Mayfield. He felt that the problems maligning the team's performances were limited to one played, the franchise quarterback Mayfield. Now that Mayfield is long gone and balling out in Tampa Bay, Kareem Hunt Sr. can't blame the former Heisman Trophy winner for the team's misfortunes.
Who is Kareem Hunt's mother, Stephanie Riggins?
Kareem's mother is Stephanie Riggins, and she, too, has a connection with Ohio, having lived in the city of Elyria, Ohio, for a while. Riggins gave birth to Kareem on August 6, 1995, as her first child with Kareem Sr. They are also the parents of Kareem's younger sibling, Clarence Riggins. Stephanie Riggins has been with Kareem every step of the way, even when Kareem Sr. left the family.
Stephanie Riggins has since remarried, tying the knot with Deltrin Kimbro. However, both Stephanie and Kimbro have had their run-ins with the Law. According to USA Today, Stephanie was arrested in 2014 on drug possession charges and pleaded guilty to driving under the influence.
Furthermore, according to court records, in 2004, Deltrin Kimbro was sentenced to eight years for drug peddling and related offenses. Stephanie and Kimbro have done their time and are frequently seen at Kareem's NFL games.
What to expect from Kareem Hunt in 2023
Kareem Hunt is an undeniable talent and has been a unit since joining the NFL in 2017. He was a Pro Bowler in his debut season and led the NFL in rushing yards in the same season. However, for reasons of the Gridiron, he has struggled to fulfill his remarkable potential.
Hunt will get another chance to be an NFL starter in 2023. This is due to Nick Chubb's unfortunate season-ending injury in week two, and now Hunt can make the RB1 spot his own until Chubb returns.
The time is running out as Hunt plays in an unforgiving position. It will be an exciting season in Cleveland, and Hunt could be in the thick of it.
