San Francisco 49ers
Hunter was selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the fourth round (115th overall) in the 2011 NFL Draft.[6]
Hunter received his first start of his NFL career in week 4 of the 2011 season against the Philadelphia Eagles. He rushed for 473 yards (with an average yard per carry of 4.2) and scored 2 touchdowns during the regular season in a backup role to starting running back Frank Gore. Late in the 2012 season Hunter was put on injured reserve with a torn Achilles.
Over the summer of 2013, Hunter reportedly rehabilitated at Cosumnes River College with physical therapist Weinshilboum according to a June 18 article in the Sacramento Bee. Hunter spent time performing parcour across the Cosumnes campus, Bee writer Yolanda Marie wrote. Hunter was activated off the physically unable to perform list on August 10, 2013, nearly 8+1⁄2 months after he partially tore his left Achilles.[7]
On July 26, 2014, Hunter was carted off the field due to a knee injury. Later an MRI revealed that he tore his ACL.[8] The 49ers later waived him on August 5.[9] After clearing waivers, he was placed on the 49ers' injured reserve list.[10]

On December 16, 2015, Hunter signed with the New Orleans Saints after starting running back Mark Ingram II was placed on injured reserve.[11] On January 1, 2016, Hunter was placed on injured reserve.[12]
Toronto Argonauts
On March 1, 2017, Hunter signed with the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League (CFL).[13] On June 2, 2017, Hunter announced his retirement from professional football.[14]
