His Week 7 performance was so, so encouraging. It took him 13 NFL games to record his first 1 TD/1 INT game — something only two other players have done since the 1970 merger... Liam Coen unleashed him in the closest thing we've seen to Cooper Kupp/Puka Nacua/Chris Godwin usage in Jacksonville. Each of his 4 targets were big-boy designer looks.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Hunter's 1 TD/1 INT game and elite usage expansion signal imminent breakout.

Hunter's Week 7 performance was exceptional: he recorded his first 1 TD/1 INT game in his 13th NFL game, joining only two other players since the 1970 merger to achieve this. He shadowed Nico Collins and fooled C.J. Stroud into throwing a redzone interception by purposefully stumbling in man coverage. On offense, Liam Coen unleashed him in the closest thing Jacksonville has seen to Cooper Kupp/Puka Nacua/Chris Godwin usage, with each of his 4 targets being big-boy designer looks—a notable step up from basic RPO packages used weeks prior. He feels like the only guy consistently making impact plays in big moments.
