Hunt and Conklin add significant value to a Browns offense that has struggled in recent weeks, scoring just 20 points over their past two games.
Hunt had five rushing touchdowns in the first six games of the season before hitting IR on Oct. 19 with a calf injury. Combined with Nick Chubb, Hunt forms half of one of the NFL's most dangerous running back duos.
Conklin, a 2020 First-Team All-Pro, was placed on IR with an elbow injury on Nov. 6. With Conklin helping to clear the way for the two-headed monster in the backfield, the Browns could look to run the ball frequently Sunday.
The Ravens (7-3) and Browns (6-5) play twice in the next three weeks -- first on Sunday night in Baltimore, then again on Dec. 12 in Cleveland.
