Hunter logged 324 offensive snaps (66.7%) and 162 defensive snaps (35.9%) in his seven games last season.<\/p>\n

Before getting hurt, he had 28 receptions for 298 yards and a touchdown, enjoying an apparent breakout in his final outing as a rookie by going for 101 yards and the score on eight catches. He had 15 tackles and three passes defensed at cornerback.<\/p>\n

In his absence, Parker Washington<\/a> etched out a role to lead the team in both receptions (58) and receiving yards (847). The Jags also hit on their trade for Jakobi Meyers<\/a>, as evidenced by their decision to sign him to a three-year extension<\/a> in December.<\/p>\n

Washington’s emergence and Meyers’ arrival, as well as Brian Thomas Jr.<\/a> still possessing undeniable talent despite his sophomore slump, leaves Jacksonville with a strong trio of wideouts outside of Hunter.<\/p>\n

He showed he has the talent to contribute to the passing attack, but Jacksonville’s corner situation is certainly thinner at the moment, considering the aforementioned free agents to be and the Jags finishing the 2025 campaign 21st in passing yards allowed.<\/p>\n

There’s free agency and the draft still to unfold before Jacksonville gains a clearer picture of its roster, but just like in his first season, Hunter’s usage will remain a popular topic of conversation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hunter logged 324 offensive snaps (66.7%) and 162 defensive snaps (35.9%) in his seven games last season.
