Overview
- Hunter caught a seven‑yard touchdown from Trevor Lawrence and, on the very next defensive drive, intercepted C.J. Stroud in the end zone in Sunday’s London game, making him the first player since 2002 to record both a receiving TD and an interception in the same game.
- He finished with four receptions for 59 yards and a touchdown on offense and added tackles and the fourth‑quarter interception on defense.
- The Jaguars lost 34‑31 when Houston answered with a last‑second drive capped by Ka’imi Fairbairn’s 49‑yard field goal.
- Jacksonville had limited Hunter’s offensive role this season, using him heavily on defense with snap counts near 79% on defense and about 7% on offense through five games, a deployment the team says reflects injury caution, roster depth and matchup concerns.
- The rare outing has intensified public and media calls to use Hunter more often on offense, created visible support from his wife on social media, and could force the Jaguars to clarify a sustainable two‑way plan for his usage going forward.
