Travis Hunter Quietly Sets Season High in Key Category

2025 Fantasy Football Impact

Hunter's biggest contribution to Sunday's game was unfortunately negative. He lined up offside on a play late in the third quarter that produced a 54-yard TD catch for Brian Thomas Jr. Hunter's penalty nullified that TD, though Jacksonville wound up scoring later on that possession.

On the positive side, Hunter played a season-high 61 offensive snaps. He also ran a route on a team-high 86.3% of Jacksonville dropbacks. Here are the rates from his previous five outings:

• 75.8%
• 56.8%
• 58.1%
• 65.6%
• 73.5%

Jacksonville trailed for most of this contest after going 4-1 through the first five games. So we'll have to see how much of that increase in offensive snaps was planned vs. reacting to game flow.

We also still need more production from the rookie before we can start him in our fantasy lineups in most cases.

Jacksonville gets a Week 7 Rams matchup with shootout potential, followed by a Week 8 bye that could motivate some reassessment of roles.

Dynasty Impact

Hunter's low-impact start to his rookie season could open a buy window in dynasty. Consider a price check on the No. 2 overall pick if you have a spot to play with.
