Overview

• The Jaguars have confirmed they will deploy Hunter as both a wide receiver and cornerback to start the season under coach Liam Coen’s guidance.
• Chief strategy officer Tony Khan has endorsed a split-snap blueprint that monitors his workload through dedicated offense and defense drills.
• Kansas City’s Travis Kelce predicted on the “Bussin’ with the Boys” podcast that teams will attack Hunter with deep passes during his cornerback snaps to wear him down.
• Analysts warn that sustaining high snap counts across a 17-game regular season could test Hunter’s stamina both physically and mentally.
• If the plan holds, Hunter would be the first full-time two-way player in the NFL since Chuck Bednarik 63 years ago.
