Tailback Kareem Hunt seemed to put the Kansas City Chiefs on his back in Sunday's comeback victory over the Indianapolis Colts, and his performance – which included a career-high 30 carries – caught the attention of the league office.

Hunt, who rushed for a season-high 104 yards on Sunday – was named "AFC Offensive Player of the Week" on Wednesday in recognition of his efforts. This marks his second time winning the award, and the first time since Week 9 of the 2018 season.

Pro Football Focus credited Hunt with seven forced missed tackles and 81 yards after contact in Sunday's game as the veteran tailback churned his legs for a season-high 10 rushing first downs. Only Colts' running back Jonathan Taylor, who rushed for 11 first downs in Week 10, recorded a higher total in a single game this season.

Hunt currently leads the Chiefs in total touches (129), rushing yards (457) and scrimmage touchdowns (8) heading into Week 13, and now with a critical showdown against the Dallas Cowboys up next, Hunt and the rest of the Chiefs' offense will look to keep things rolling on Thanksgiving.
