No. 2: Inside Linebacker Reuben Foster vs. Running Back Kareem Hunt
In 2017, linebacker Reuben Foster and running back Kareem Hunt were just rookies trying to make their mark on the league. And they did more than that, finishing their rookie seasons being labeled as a top middle linebacker and a top running back in the league, respectively.
Both of these players have had quiet starts to their sophomore seasons, however. Foster has not even played yet due to his two-game suspension, and Hunt has amassed just 124 rushing yards through his first two games and is averaging a mediocre 3.6 yards per carry.
However, it will still be intriguing to see both of these talented players to face each other for the first time ever.
The Chiefs have developed into a passing team with Mahomes under center, but the run game has always and will always be important for any football team. This matchup will be a fine one to watch, and one that could ultimately affect the outcome of the game.
