Jaguars' Liam Coen is getting closer to being done with what fans are already tired of just one week into the season

Now, that comes to fruition in a bigger way after the season opener. Hunter's role was very limited on defense in Week 1, but it seems like Jacksonville is simply easing him into the process. Playing both offense and defense at the college level is a different beast than the NFL level.

Regardless, Hunter won't be mostly limited to just playing wide receiver right now. They're expanding how he is used, and with his talent, that is a positive sign for a Jaguars team looking for answers to improve on both sides of the football.

What to expect from Hunter on defense in the short-term

"Travis Hunter only played six snaps on Sunday in their win over the Carolina Panthers, but those six snaps were pretty good, all things considered. Hunter was more involved with the offense, being the guy the Jaguars used in their short passing game, such as wide receiver screens, drags, flats, and slants. On defense he wasn’t matched up against the best receiver at all, and that’s probably for the best. Hunter can be a great defensive back, but he’s not the best on the Jaguars, or even close to the best. Him being on the second unit is about right, because the guys ahead of him are better at the moment, and Hunter has to play the other side of the ball, too."

"But if we’re talking depth, he’s perfect for the Jaguars and what they’ll need on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals. It will be interesting to see how many snaps he gets over Tyson Campbell and Jarrian Jones, two great cornerbacks. If Hunter is coming off the field that means those guys are too." -- Justin Churchill, A to Z Sports

Keep an eye out on Hunter this weekend. Hopefully for the Jags, he can come up with a big play that shows precisely why the organization traded their first-round pick for next year to get select him early in the first round.
