Jaguars Place Travis Hunter on Injured Reserve

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie two‑way standout Travis Hunter suffered a non‑contact right knee injury in Thursday practice and was placed on injured reserve Friday, meaning he will miss at least four games. An MRI reportedly showed his ACL is intact, but the team is still assessing the extent of the injury and whether he can return this season. Hunter had just delivered a career offensive performance in London (eight catches for roughly 101–104 yards and his first NFL touchdown) and had been slated for a larger role as a receiver while still logging significant snaps at cornerback. Through seven games he had about 28 receptions for roughly 290–298 yards and a score, plus 15 tackles and three passes defended, having played about 486 total snaps (approximately 324 offense, 162 defense). Coach Liam Coen called Hunter’s injury “a minor setback,” said the rookie is in good spirits, and said the team will determine the best course of action amid other receiver injuries.
