Another underwhelming player from 2019, Hunt could be a surprise roster cut this offseason.

Last year Hunt started 15 games for Indianapolis and really played well with five sacks and 30 tackles from an interior defensive lineman position. But in 2019 his play fell off, seeing less of the field. Hunt had no sacks and only 17 tackles.

Ballard mentioned in the same presser that the Colts need to upgrade inside on defense, and with Hunt turning 33 before the regular season starts in September, he could very well be out of a job before the Colts start the 2020 season.

This is the final year of a two-year, $9 million contract that Hunt signed in 2019 and if the Colts were to cut him, it would cost them nothing on the cap and they would save $4 million.
