After being selected with the second pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars inked hybrid WR/CB Travis Hunter to a four-year, $46.65 million contract.
The Florida native already bought a home for his mom and an expensive new car for his new wife Leanna Lenee. Now, it was time for Hunter to treat himself.
Hunter, Lenne, and his brother Trayvis toured 16 houses before the Jaguars rookie settled on a 8,125 square foot home in the gated Deerwood Country Club, home to a host of other NFL players.
Hunter’s mansion is two stories, has five bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a four-car garage, a pickleball court, a tennis court, a pool, and further amenities.

It was previously owned by Pro Football Hall of Famer LeRoy Butler. The 54-year-old safety spent his entire 12-year career with the Green Bay Packers, where he made four First-team All-Pro squads and won a Super Bowl.
Hunter is joining a Jaguars team in transition at practically every position besides quarterback. Jacksonville hired 2024 Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen to oversee the franchise going forward.
Coen appeared on the ‘Pat McAfee Show’ on Thursday and discussed how Jacksonville plans on using Hunter, who played 713 offensive snaps and 748 defensive snaps a season ago at Colorado, in 2025.

“We built a plan and then sat him down and really talked through it,” Coen said (via CBS)
“How does he learn? What is the best ways that he learns?
“We did gain some of that information throughout the draft process, but when you actually sit down with him and get a feeling, ‘Well, he likes to walk-through more than sit in a meeting-room setting, so let’s do more walk-throughs.’ Every day he was on offense, he also met with the defensive staff in the afternoons, and vice versa,” he continued.

“Typically, throughout this offseason, he was on one side of the ball in practice, and he didn’t flip-flop. Today, he did. And he played both sides of the ball in practice today and that will have to continue on throughout training camp where he’s playing on both sides of the ball and getting that mental and physical endurance throughout the training camp, because that’s what he’s going to have to do in games,” Coen admitted.
“So ultimately, we’re building a foundation right now of both sides of the football, but he’s going to have to do both in practice because that’s what the game is going to be like, and we’ll sit down and reevaluate what we did this spring to see what’s the best moving forward.”
