Hunter displayed explosive two-way impact on Sunday with an interception on defense followed three plays later by a 35-yard twisting catch on offense, showcasing the type of dual-threat production the Jaguars are deploying him for. QB Trevor Lawrence confirmed Hunter is making plays on offense and emphasized the coaching staff will determine optimal deployment across both sides.PositiveUsageAug 2, 2026
Through camp, Hunter has taken 34 snaps on defense and 22 on offense across 11-on-11 work. On Sunday alone, he logged 17 total snaps (10 on defense, 7 on offense). Entering camp, he was expected to participate more on defense than offense, which has materialized, but he's still getting substantial offensive run. Hunter told NFL Network he wants to play 'all of them' and 'can't stay on the sideline,' while QB Trevor Lawrence noted Hunter 'would play every snap on both sides of the ball if he was able to' and confirmed 'when he's on offense, he's making plays.'PositiveInjuryAug 2, 2026
Hunter looks fresh and healthy after last year's season-ending knee injury, delivering arguably the best practice of his 2025 first-rounder pro career on Sunday at Jacksonville camp.NegativeRoleAug 1, 2026
Hunter, the former No. 2 overall pick, didn't seem to take kindly to reports that the Jags planned for him to be a primary corner and part-time receiver. The truth won't be known until Hunter is on the field for a significant amount of time. How much he participates early in camp and where that participation takes place will indicate the club's intentions. If Hunter is the lockdown corner most believe he's capable of being and continues to make plays at receiver, the Jags could have trouble taking him off the gridiron. The rest of the offensive playmakers could have some say in how much time Hunter sees at WR. After a disappointing second season, Brian Thomas Jr. has received glowing reviews this offseason, Parker Washington soared to close last season, and Jakobi Meyers remains a consistent professional. If BTJ gets back on track, there could be less of a reason to use Hunter in a ton of offensive sets.
