Report: Jaguars plan to make Travis Hunter a starting cornerback, part-time receiver
Our Summary
In 2025, Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter played 324 snaps on offense and 162 on defense before a knee injury ended his season. The Jaguars plan to shift Hunter's role this year, making him a starting cornerback with full-time defensive duties and part-time offensive responsibilities. This decision aligns with comments from Jaguars General Manager James Gladstone, who highlighted a greater need at cornerback on the current roster. Last season, Hunter recorded 28 receptions for 298 yards and one touchdown offensively, and on defense, he had 11 solo tackles and three passes defensed without any interceptions.
