2025 Fantasy Outlook
After winning the Heisman Trophy last year, Hunter will soon become the NFL's first true two-way player since his mentor, Deion Sanders, played about half of the Cowboys' snaps on offense in 1996. While some called him a cornerback first and foremost during the pre-draft process, the Browns said otherwise, only to then trade the No. 2 overall pick to Jacksonville. Fortunately for prospective fantasy managers, the Jaguars used the pick on Hunter and were quick to announce that he'll start off prioritizing offense. Landing in Jacksonville rather than Cleveland also means better QB play, catching passes from Trevor Lawrence, although it'll be hard to eclipse 2024 first-round pick Brian Thomas as the primary target in a new-look attack under former Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen. Coming off a 1,258-yard, 15-TD effort in his final season at Colorado, it shouldn't take long for Hunter to emerge as Lawrence's second-favorite option ahead of free-agent signing Dyami Brown and TE Brenton Strange. While he's only about average in terms of size (6-0, 188) and didn't go through pre-draft testing, Hunter has the speed and fluidity one might expect of a former No. 1 overall recruit who became the best college cornerback in the country before also making his case as the top wide receiver. The biggest question now is whether his ability on defense limits his playing time on offense. Read Past Outlooks

Uncertain for Sunday's game

August 16, 2025
Jaguars coach Liam Coen said Saturday that the starters will suit up for Sunday's preseason game against the Saints, though he did not confirm whether or in what capacity Hunter (upper body) will play, Garry Smits of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union reports.
ANALYSIS
Hunter sat out Friday's walk-through practice due to an upper-body injury, though it's worth noting that Coen labeled his absence precautionary. When asked Friday whether Hunter would suit up versus the Saints, Coen said "we'll figure that out, we don't know yet." The rookie first-round pick played 10 snaps on offense (with the first team) and eight snaps on defense (with the second team) during Jacksonville's preseason opener against Pittsburgh, but with starting cornerback Tyson Campbell (undisclosed) currently injured, Hunter could have a path to first-team defensive reps if cleared to play Sunday.
