- Trevor Lawrence highlighted Hunter's talent and his desire to play.
Travis Hunter, a rookie with the Jacksonville Jaguars, is preparing for his professional debut. The head coach of the team, Liam Cohen, reported that Hunter, who was selected second overall in the 2025 NFL Draft, will play in the positions of wide receiver and cornerback during the preseason match against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Cohen noted that all starting players, including Hunter, will have a chance to play in this game. This decision is related to the team's desire to test new systems on both sides of the field.
Hunter is considered one of the most talented players on the team. He previously stated that the mental aspect of playing in two positions is more challenging than the physical one, but he is confident in his ability to perform both roles at a high level.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence also expressed a desire to play in the match, emphasizing Hunter's talent. Lawrence, who did not play in the preseason due to injury, expressed excitement about returning to the field, even in the preseason match.
In the first preseason depth chart, Hunter was listed as a starting wide receiver and a reserve cornerback. The player wants to showcase his skills and prove his value to the team.
