Travis Hunter Running Almost Exclusively on Offensive Side of Ball, per ESPN's Michael DiRocco

After an initial firestorm of questions regarding which side of the ball the two-way star would play on after the Jaguars traded up to the No. 2 pick to get him, Travis Hunter seems to be trending heavily towards playing the majority of his snaps in the NFL during his rookie year on offense. Surprise, surprise. This was the expectation coming into the draft even before Liam Coen got his hands on him, and after reiterating immediately post draft that Hunter would play primarily on offense, the Jags coaching staff is making good on that promise given the work that Hunter has gone through so far. Hunter will be contending with last year’s rookie sensation Brian Thomas Jr. for targets in an offense that vacated 153 targets from last year after the departures of Evan Engram, Christian Kirk, and Gabe Davis, leaving plenty of work available for the former Colorado Buffalo in Liam Coen’s new offensive scheme. Coen was able to inject life both into Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers passing offense during his time in Tampa Bay, and he’ll look to wave his magic wand once again and fix what has ailed Trevor Lawrence since he signed his mega-deal last offseason. Hunter will profile as a fantasy WR3 with clear WR2 upside if he can hit the ground running, with a high range of outcomes that could have him challenging Brian Thomas Jr. by the end of the season.
