Overview
- The Jaguars’ first preseason depth chart lists Travis Hunter as a starting wide receiver and a backup cornerback, confirming his planned two-way role.
- Head coach Liam Coen praised Hunter’s “never-before-seen” endurance and credited altitude training for his ability to handle extensive snaps.
- Hunter has rotated between offensive and defensive reps throughout training camp as the team refines his dual-position workload.
- Jacksonville traded an extra first-round pick plus second- and fourth-round selections to move up in the draft for Hunter with the goal of deploying him on both sides of the ball.
- Coen suggested that Hunter could contend for both Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year honors if he sustains near full-time playing time at each position.
