Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Jacksonville Jaguars plan to feature first-round WR Travis Hunter primarily on offense in the team's Week 1 opener against the Carolina Panthers. Hunter will also play defense as a rotational CB.
Per Schefter, Jacksonville's plan for utilizing Hunter is fluid and is subject to change on a week-to-week basis.
2025 Fantasy Football Impact
One of the primary concerns for fantasy football was just how many snaps Hunter would play on offense and defense. If he is used primarily as a WR, Hunter will be in a position to thrive as the main slot receiver in Liam Cohen's offense.
That's a role that resulted in Chris Godwin posting overall WR3 numbers on a PPG basis last season.
Carolina allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing WRs last season and remains a bottom-tier DST unit in our Week 1 DST projections.
