Deion Sanders Urges Jaguars to Expand Travis Hunter’s Two-Way Role

On the New Heights podcast, Sanders detailed a staggered-practice plan he says would support heavier in-game usage for the rookie.

Overview

  • Sanders said the Jaguars are underutilizing Hunter, declaring, “They’re not using him enough.”
  • Through three games, Hunter has not topped 68.3% of snaps on either offense or defense, per Pro Football Reference.
  • In Week 3, he logged a season-high 68.3% of defensive snaps in a win over Houston but recorded a season-low 37 offensive snaps.
  • His early production includes 10 receptions for 76 yards along with nine tackles and one pass breakup on defense.
  • The team has signaled it intends to increase his workload as debate continues over two-way usage versus focusing on a single position to manage risk.
