Is Travis Hunter Set to Miss His First NFL Game?

Travis Hunter, the versatile Jaguars rookie who shines as both a wide receiver and cornerback, is facing an unexpected challenge — his first NFL injury. Fans are anxious as reports confirm he didn’t participate in team drills.

During a recent press conference, head coach Liam Coen revealed that Hunter is nursing an upper-body issue. While he reassured that the precautionary measures maintained are meant to prioritize the player's health, the uncertainty looms over whether Hunter will step onto the field against the New Orleans Saints this Sunday.

Coen shared, "We’ll figure that out. We don’t know yet," leaving fans hopeful but cautious.

In the Jaguars' initial preseason game, Hunter made his mark, playing 10 snaps on offense and 8 on defense. However, with this latest development, it appears that even if he is cleared to play, his time on the field may be significantly reduced.

As anticipation builds, all eyes will be on Hunter and the team's announcement leading up to the game. Will he be ready to contribute in this crucial matchup? Stay tuned!
