Hunter was seen on the sidelines going through the playcall sheet with coaches while he was out.

“That’s what they’re supposed to do when they’re hurt. Stay locked in and have a little bit of they can’t go, we want them to make sure that they’re locked in, getting all the calls, understanding the call, and being able to watch and execute it as well in their minds,” Coen said.

He also said Hunter’s status is up in the air for Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints.

“We don’t know yet,” Coen said.

Hunter isn’t the only Jaguar that’s ailing, as Coen said the staff will discuss how long the starters will play Sunday.

“We’re still kind of working through it as of now,” Coen said. “We’ve got to get a full totality of the injuries, and you know we went pretty hard the last few days.”
