- Coen said the Jaguars are still assessing the injury and have not determined whether Hunter will return this season.
- Plans to expand Hunter’s offensive role after his Week 7 breakout in London have been paused following the IR move.
- The Jaguars expect to elevate practice-squad receivers and lean on Brian Thomas Jr., Dyami Brown, Parker Washington and Tim Patrick to cover offensive snaps, with defensive assignments also adjusted.
- Local reports indicated he went down while playing defense and injured his right knee, though the team has not provided further specifics.
