KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not issued a formal statement Friday, although one was expected for later in the evening.
Police were called to the scene, but no charges were filed for the Feb. 10 incident. But the video shows Hunt knocking over and kicking the woman in a Cleveland hallway.
Cleveland police and the NFL did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Hunt was at practice Friday, then was excused and sent home. The Chiefs (9-2) are at Oakland on Sunday.
Being placed on the exempt list means the player is paid and does not count against the club’s 53-man roster.
