Travis Hunter, drafted as the NFL's first two-way superstar, started the season primarily as a cornerback for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Despite having only one catch for eight yards, Hunter has impressed on the defensive side of the ball. In a game against the Cincinnati Bengals, the Jaguars narrowly won 22-17, with Hunter contributing significantly with three solo tackles and two pass breakups.
The highlight of the game came when Hunter intercepted Joe Burrow early in the first quarter, showcasing an extraordinary juke move on Tee Higgins, who lost his footing and fell awkwardly. Unfortunately, the play was ruled a penalty, and Hunter's remarkable move was not counted. While the interception itself didn't count, Hunter's performance in the game and his potential as a two-way player remain impressive.
