Travis Hunter to be "Significant Player" in the Offensive Going Forward?
ESPN's Michael DiRocco suggests that the Jacksonville Jaguars need to get first-rounder Travis Hunter more involved on offense over their final 10 games if they are going to be in the playoff hunt, and head coach Liam Coen hinted at a lineup shift coming out of their bye week. "We are going to play the best 11 [on each side of the ball] as much as humanly possible," Coen said. It sounds as though Hunter is going to be a "significant player in the offense going forward." In the Week 7 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in London before the bye, Hunter led the team in targets (14), catches (eight), and receiving yards (101) while playing a season-high 64 snaps. The former Heisman Trophy winner now leads the Jags in catches (28) and is second in receiving yards (298). DiRocco doesn't think we should be surprised if Hunter "starts getting the WR1 treatment" in the second half of the season. How it will impact Hunter's role on defense is unclear, but this would be excellent news for Hunter's fantasy managers going forward.
