  • Hunter is the only top-10 pick from the 2025 draft still unsigned as contract negotiations continue in Jacksonville’s offseason program.
  • Head coach Liam Coen plans to have Hunter focus primarily on wide receiver duties while integrating cornerback reps in separate sessions.
  • Quarterback Trevor Lawrence praised Hunter’s energy and stamina and Cowboys legend Dez Bryant celebrated the rookie’s interception on social media.
