- Jaguars have Travis Hunter's schedule down to the minute for training camp
The Jacksonville Jaguars are on the clock.
Not in the sense of being on the clock during the NFL Draft, but they are finding extra pockets of time to bring along rookie two-way player Travis Hunter .
Hunter spent the second day of training camp at the Miller Electric Center wearing a teal jersey and practicing with the offense, same as he did during the opening day of camp.

But for the second day in a row, Hunter used the time allotted for special teams to work with his defensive coaches.
Hunter trotted over to the near field of the MEC with defensive backs coach Anthony Perkins and secondary coach Ron Milus. Then defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile joined the group, giving the rookie a wealth of knowledge to receive coaching from.
"I would say [head coach Liam Coen] has done an unbelievable job with that," Campanile said of how the team has handled providing Hunter with additional time on the defensive side of the ball. "He is down to the second with all that. Honestly, it's impressive to watch because he does a great job of communicating with us when he's going to be with us."
Coen told reporters the team has mapped out a plan for Hunter for the entirety of training camp. He said every minute the rookie is in the building is accounted for.

Through two days of training camp, the Jaguars have shown that's an accurate statement.
"Our coaches, coach Milus, coach Perkins, [assistant defensive backs coach Drew Lascari], those guys have done a great job," Campanile said. "They've done a great job planning everything out with his meeting time and then having the stuff ready to go on the field so we can do feet meets and walk and talks with him in between if he's available."
