Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence had more praise for Travis Hunter, noting that he has handled the workload of playing both sides of the ball extremely well.
“Travis has been great — just his work ethic, how he’s come in,” Lawrence said, via Jamal St. Cyr of WJXT. “He’s been one of the hardest-working guys we have. I think it’s a commitment to learning the playbook and trying to learn the two systems. It’s a lot on a rookie, it’s challenging to learn everything and he’s done a nice job. We still have work to do and we’re going to get a lot done in training camp and get us ready to play come September. I’m really excited for him and how he can help our team.”
Titans OT JC Latham highly praised first-round QB Cam Ward for quickly showing leadership since joining the organization and accountability for bad plays.
“He holds himself to a leadership and accountability. He’ll admit when he’s wrong and he’ll take accountability,” Latham said, via TitansWire. “Even if it’s not 100 percent on him.”
Latham pointed out how Ward butted heads with DT Jeffery Simmons in practice and was impressed by the quarterback’s competitive drive.
“As a quarterback, especially a rookie who hasn’t played his first snap, he’s going right at him and not backing down,” Latham said.
