Ryan Hunter
Ryan Hunter is a Canadian gridiron football guard for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League.
Hunter is from North Bay, Ontario. He moved to Buffalo, New York, during high school. He attended Canisius High School, and played for the school's football team. He was named the best offensive lineman in Western New York, and shared 2012 The Buffalo News Player of the Year Award with teammate Qadree Ollison. Hunter then attended Bowling Green State University, and played college football for the Bowling Green Falcons. He took a redshirt in his first year, and then played in 52 games for his next four years. He started all 12 games of his junior year at right tackle, and all 12 games in his senior year at left tackle.
After not getting selected in the 2018 NFL draft, Hunter was drafted by Toronto Argonauts as the final pick of the first round of 2018 CFL Draft but did not sign a contract with the team. Instead, Hunter signed with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent. Hunter spent the 2018 season on the Chiefs' practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster in 2019. After a loss, the Chiefs released Hunter, but they resigned him to the practice squad. He was again promoted to the active roster, and was on the active roster for Super Bowl LIV in which the Chiefs would go on to beat San Francisco 49ers 31-20.
