Cleveland — The Cleveland Browns have signed Kareem Hunt, who was released two months ago by Kansas City after a video surfaced showing the star running back pushing and kicking a woman.

Hunt was placed on the NFL’s commissioner’s exempt list hours before the Chiefs released him, a move that drew public support after he was seen in a physical altercation with the woman last February during an argument in the lobby of a downtown hotel where he stayed.

Hunt was in his second season with Kansas City and was one of the team’s best players.
