Travis Hunter joins Jacksonville Sheriff in ride-along. How to watch

On August 21, Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters took star NFL player Travis Hunter on a ride-along, which was documented by the office. The two became fast friends after Hunter was drafted by the Jaguars in 2025, and Hunter has expressed interest in law enforcement. Sheriff Waters showed Hunter parts of Jacksonville he had never seen before, and they responded to some calls together.

In one clip, they arrived to find drugs and a suspect during a traffic stop. Jacksonville Fire Rescue also encountered Hunter on July 29 when Engine 36 B-Shift responded to a call, finding Sheriff Waters, JSO members, and Hunter already on scene. Hunter, the 2024 Heisman Trophy winner, wears No. 12 for the Jaguars and played on both offense and defense last season, averaging 46.2 offensive and 23.1 defensive plays per game.

The wide receiver/defensive back signed a four-year, $46.65 million fully guaranteed contract with the Jaguars in June, including a $30.57 million signing bonus. Hunter married Leanna Hunter on May 24, 2025, in Tennessee, and they welcomed their son in August 2025.
