Overview
- Through three games, Hunter has not topped 68.3% of snaps on offense or defense, with overall usage at 59% on offense and 47% on defense.
- His offensive role has tapered as targets dropped from 8 to 6 to 2 and offensive snaps moved from 42 to 42 to 37, while defensive snaps climbed to 43 in Weeks 2 and 3.
- Coen said Hunter is not behind but that coaches must simplify alignments and reduce moving parts to let him play faster.
- Jacksonville is limiting Hunter to the F receiver role and one cornerback spot, and injuries at either position will be handled by next man up rather than expanding his duties.
- Deion Sanders publicly urged the Jaguars to use Hunter more and suggested a staggered practice plan that includes early-week rest.
