Hunt, 29, is a former sixth-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2016. He was entering the second year of his four-year rookie contract when Seattle cut him loose coming out of the preseason and re-signed him to their practice squad. 

Hunt was later signed to the active roster and the Seahawks re-signed him by placing an original-round tender on Hunt that was set to cost them $2.133 million for the 2020 season. However, Hunt was released a few months later.

Hunt later caught on with the Colts and was on and off of their roster before returning to the Seahawks last year. Seattle brought him back on a futures contract this past January before adding him to their practice squad. 

In 2020, Hunt appeared in one game for the Colts.
