Jaguars won't have two-way rookie Travis Hunter practice on both sides during same OTA session
Our Summary
Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter, known for his dual-threat capabilities, won't be playing on both offense and defense in a single practice session during spring OTAs. Instead, the team will alternate his practice focus between the two areas. Coach Liam Coen emphasized the importance of Hunter's mental preparation, ensuring he attends both offensive and defensive meetings to understand the communication and corrections. Though Hunter aims to play both sides full-time, the team plans to ease him into this role to prevent any undue pressure. During the regular season, it's anticipated that Hunter will practice on both offense and defense, potentially playing receiver on third-down days while also taking defensive reps. Hunter's progress is being carefully monitored to balance his physical workload with essential mental development.
