CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The first touchdown of the Browns season comes courtesy of running back Kareem Hunt after quarterback Jacoby Brissett found him in the end zone for a short pass.

The Browns worked their way down the field thanks to a big run from running back Nick Chubb, and after the Panthers were called for pass interference in the end zone, Cleveland found themselves on the goal line.
With Hunt lined up at fullback, the Browns ran their play and Hunt was open on the edge. Brissett's quick pass to Hunt was good for six and Cade York's extra point attempt gave the Browns a 7-0 lead over the Panthers.
Not long after, Hunt found the end zone on a 24-yard run, breaking through the line and taking it to the house.

The Browns had utilized Hunt well in the first half of the game, not only lining him up at fullback for the touchdown but having him on the field at the same time as Chubb, giving a real one-two punch for the offense.
