Jacksonville Jaguars CB/WR Travis Hunter (knee) is looking to bounce back after a season-ending knee injury last October. Despite the injury, he is still expected to be a two-way player in Jacksonville, and head coach Liam Coen and general manager James Gladstone are committed to the plan.
"He is set to play both sides of the ball," Gladstone said in the offseason. "The piece that I think we can expect to see is actually an uptick in corner usage. Last year, it was a higher volume, higher percentage of wide receiver usage than it was corner. I think we can expect to see that corner percentile and count go up. That's not to say anything impacts his availability and usage on offense. It just means that cornerback usage will increase."

Huddle Up: Hunter is worth a look for depth at the position, perhaps as a low-end WR4 or WR5 in PPR fantasy formats. His lockdown coverage will also make the Jaguars D/ST rather valuable for managers. However, there are a lot of mouths to feed on offense in Duval, with Jakobi Meyers, Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr. all grabbing targets, as well as Chris Rodriguez Jr. and Brenton Strange at running back, and tight end, respectively.
