Travis Hunter scouting report
Florida Times-Union reporter and Jaguars beat writer Demetrius Harvey wrote : "At 6-foot-1, 185 pounds, Hunter is the most unique player in this year's draft, playing full-time on both sides of the football as a wide receiver and corner through three years of college .

"Hunter recorded 96 catches for 1,258 yards with 15 receiving touchdowns on offense for Colorado during his junior year in 2024.
"He also logged 35 total tackles, 11 pass deflections and four interceptions as a cornerback for the Buffaloes last season.
"Hunter went on to win the 2024 Heisman Trophy, given to the nation's top player.
"Hunter will likely play on both sides of the ball at the next level, but specialize in one. The Jaguars will likely pair Hunter with Pro Bowl receiver Brian Thomas Jr. to give quarterback Trevor Lawrence another threat to opposing defenses. Likewise, Hunter could play cornerback opposite Tyson Campbell if the team needs him to."
