Hunt's time in Pittsburgh ended after the team chose to hire Omar Khan as thier general manager over him. The two seemed to be the running favorites for the position after Kevin Colbert announced his retirement, with many believing Hunt could take the job due to his background in scouting. Instead, Pittsburgh went with Khan and brought in former Eagles executive Andy Weidl as their assistant general manager. Meanwhile, Hunt departs for a new job in Philadelphia.
