Cleveland Browns' Kareem Hunt suggests some teammates didn't give it their all vs. Arizona Cardinals
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt fanned the flames of controversy surrounding his team Monday, suggesting that his teammates weren’t giving it their all against the Arizona Cardinals.
Hunt addressed the loss with reporters after practice, according to Browns Wire.
He said he felt that some players were not giving it “110 percent.”

Hunt added: “It’s got to be contagious to everybody. If we do that, usually good things happen if you’re playing with great effort. Shoot, you never know, the ball might fall in your lap if you run into it or anything like that, good things happen.”
