Antonio Christopher Hunt (born November 24, 1985) is a former professional American football running back. He was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the third round of the 2007 NFL Draft. He played two NFL seasons. Hunt played college football at Penn State.
A standout player at T. C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia, Hunt rushed for more than 2,000 total yards and also played linebacker, defensive end, and even punted. He was named the Alexandria Sportsman Club Player-of-the-Year in 2002-03. He was also a stalwart on the track and field team, finishing eighth in Virginia in the discus as a junior.
Hunt originally made a verbal commitment to play football at University of Southern California, but instead signed a letter-of-intent with Penn State upon learning of Reggie Bush's commitment to the Trojans.
Hunt finished his Penn State career 2nd all-time in career rushing yards with 3,320 yards and first all-time with 654 carries (5.08 avg.). [1] A Doak Walker Award candidate in 2006, Hunt became only the fifth Nittany Lion to rush for back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and the fifth to rush for more than 3,000 career yards. [2] He was named Big Ten Conference Offensive Player of the Week after a career-best 167-yard rushing game versus Temple. [3]
