Overview

  • Jacksonville traded four draft picks, including its 2026 first-rounder, to move up from No. 5 to No. 2 overall for Hunter’s rare two-way skill set.
  • Hunter signed a fully guaranteed four-year, $46.6 million rookie contract with a $30.5 million signing bonus in late June.
  • Senior president Tony Khan confirmed that head coach Liam Coen plans to deploy Hunter on both offense and defense under a split-snap approach.
  • In early OTAs, Hunter has rotated between wide receiver and cornerback, highlighted by a late-May practice interception and growing chemistry with quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
  • Khan acknowledged that aiming for 100 snaps per game is a lofty benchmark for a rookie balancing dual offensive and defensive duties.
