There’s a lot to be excited about after the Jaguars’ transformative off-season that includes a new coaching staff, front office and potential two-way star in Travis Hunter .
The starters will play Saturday, so fans will get a good look at Hunter, who will play both sides of the ball.
“We will play everybody,” Head Coach Liam Coen said Thursday. “So, how long that is, we’ll kind of determine how things are going a little bit. Everybody’s going to play in this game.”
Hunter’s debut will likely begin with a start at receiver and then coming on defense later. He’s listed as a starter at wideout, along with Brian Thomas Jr. and Dyami Brown , and shares a cornerback role on the depth chart with Jarrian Jones .
Hunter, the Heisman Trophy winner from Colorado, has bounced between the offense and defense during camp, and made plays on both sides of the ball.
