JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Was it the injury or was it just time? I don’t know, but the day has finally arrived — Travis Hunter running with the starting defense.
With Tyson Campbell sidelined for the second day in a row, Hunter spent the entire practice with the defense working in the secondary with Jourdan Lewis, Jarrian Jones, Eric Murray and Andrew Wingard.

This is the first time that Hunter has found himself working with this unit. He was the “third” guy so he was only in when there were three corners on the field, but played on the boundary most of the day. Solid day. Hunter had his hands on a pair of footballs. One came during team drills where he dove out of bounds for an interception but couldn’t get his feet down. He also caught a pass during one-on-ones, but it was waved off because of a pass interference call.
If there was one thing that I’d say they will take from this practice with Hunter running with the 1’s is that he is a little handsy. The refs flagged him for either pass interference or holding twice during 1-on-1s, and once during team drills. Hunter spent some time pleading his case to the ref during practice.

Notebook
- It was a sack party. The defense racked up eight sacks over the day. Josh Hines-Allen, Dennis Gardeck, Antonio Johnson, Devin Lloyd, Rayuan Lane, and BJ Green all had sacks. Emmanuel Ogbah had two sacks. Ogbah had himself a day.
- Big day for Parker Washington. P Dub had maybe his biggest day of camp. He made some tough catches and found himself wide open. Washington keeps having these big days of camp.
- Play of the day was a touchdown pass from Nick Mullens to Austin Trammell he beat his guy down the field to get open deep. Liam Coen was calling out touchdown before the throw and was very excited.
