- Travis Hunter Tracker: Jaguars rookie catches two passes on light day in full pads
There was one significant play for Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter on July 28, the team's first training camp practice in full pads.
Hunter lined up at wide receiver during an 11-on-11 period at the Miller Electric Center and on a running play by Tank Bigsby , ran into defensive end Travon Walker.

Hunter, 6 feet 1 and 185 pounds, was nearly bent over backwards by Walker, 6-5 and 272. But coach Liam Coen said Hunter had a good explanation.
"He [Walker] was standing up and Travis is in a tight bunch when we're running duo," Coen said. "And Travis has to go block Jourdan Lewis who's kind of stacked behind Travon. I just saw Travon continuing to widen out and just put his hands right in Travis' head. [Hunter] goes, 'hey, he took himself out of the play.' So yeah, good answer."
