Travis Hunter is entering his second season in the NFL after his rookie year was cut short due to a knee injury sustained in practice. The Jaguars are expecting the 22-year-old to be back at 100% strength for training camp as he works his way back from the injury, but reports indicate that Hunter could have a different role in year two.
Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported over the weekend that Jacksonville intends to use Hunter as a full-time cornerback and part-time wide receiver in 2026, a contrast from last season when he played on 67% of the team’s offensive snaps and just 36% of its defensive snaps before his campaign was cut short.
