Hunter poised for huge year-two step; Jags targeting him as elite defensive starter while maintaining two-way role.
Travis HunterWRJAX
The source projects significant year-two upside for Hunter despite a rookie season cut short by knee injury. Hunter is running over 20 mph (faster than pre-injury), cutting well, and is expected to be full go for training camp. The Jaguars plan to unleash him as a starter on defense with the goal of having him play nearly all snaps on defense in particular games, with one Jaguars coach projecting he could be a top-10 cornerback by next year if development continues. He will still play significant offensive snaps (fluctuating 40-70% game-to-game) and his best game was his last, when he had 14 targets offensively.
