2025 NFL Odds: Travis Hunter Named Starting WR, Second-String CB

National Football League 2025 NFL Odds: Travis Hunter Named Starting WR, Second-String CB Updated Aug. 5, 2025 1:20 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link Welp, there it is: Travis Hunter is listed on both sides of the Jaguars' depth chart. Hunter, a wide receiver and cornerback in college, was drafted by Jacksonville after one year at Jackson State and two seasons at Colorado. Since arriving in Jacksonville, new head coach Liam Coen has had Hunter practicing at both positions, and on Jacksonville's first unofficial depth chart, he's listed as a starting wide receiver and a second-string cornerback. That suggests most of his snaps — at least early on — will come on offense, catching passes from Trevor Lawrence. Let's check out some of the Travis Hunter odds at FanDuel Sportsbook as of Aug. 5. Travis Hunter to record 1000+ regular-season receiving yards: +230 (bet $10 to win $33 total) Travis Hunter to record 75+ regular-season receptions & record 2+ regular-season interceptions: +250 (bet $10 to win $35 total) Travis Hunter to score 10+ touchdowns (combined offensive and defensive touchdowns: +700 (bet $10 to win $80 total) Travis Hunter to record 5+ regular-season offensive touchdowns & 1+ regular-season defensive: +1200 (bet $10 to win $130 total) Travis Hunter to score 1+ touchdown & record 1+ interception in season debut: +1600 (bet $10 to win $170 total) Travis Hunter to record 750+ regular-season yards & record 5+ regular-season interceptions: +1700 (bet $10 to win $180 total) Although Hunter has yet to take an NFL snap, he played a remarkable 2,625 snaps in college and became the most decorated player in Colorado football history. During his time with the Buffaloes, he recorded 153 receptions for 1,979 yards and 20 touchdowns, and added a rushing touchdown. Defensively, Hunter was equally impressive. He logged 66 tackles (including 47 solo and three for loss), along with seven interceptions for 55 yards. Additionally, he had 16 pass breakups and one forced fumble over his two seasons in Boulder. Hunter's milestones earned him numerous awards, including the Heisman Trophy, AP College Football Player of the Year, Walter Camp Award, Chuck Bednarik Award, Fred Biletnikoff Award and Lott Trophy, and he was named the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year.

Teddy Bridgewater set to return to the NFL with the Buccaneers to back up Baker Mayfield

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Teddy Bridgewater is nearing a return to the NFL with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht said Bridgewater is visiting the team and the Bucs plan to sign him. The Buccaneers will be the eighth team in 12 seasons for the 32-year-old Bridgewater. Bridgewater coached his former high school in Miami to a Class 3A state championship last fall and then returned to the NFL in late December to serve as a backup to Jared Goff for the playoff-bound Lions. He would provide insurance for the four-time defending NFC South champions behind Baker Mayfield. The Buccaneers also have veteran Kyle Trask, who has thrown 11 passes in four seasons since he was a second-round pick in 2021. Mayfield returned to practice Tuesday after missing a couple of days because of a hand contusion. Bridgewater said last month that he was suspended from coaching Miami Northwestern High School because he provided players with financial benefits that he says he reported to the school. 'I'm not going anywhere,' Bridgewater said on social media post. 'And if it comes down to it, I will volunteer from the bleachers like I used to in 2018 and 2019 when no one had a problem.' Bridgewater, a first-round pick by Minnesota in 2014, is 33-32 as a starter and made the Pro Bowl after his second season when he led the Vikings to an 11-5 record. He also spent time with the Jets, Saints, Panthers, Broncos and Dolphins. Bridgewater has completed 66.4% of his passes for 15,120 yards, 75 touchdowns, 47 interceptions and a 90.5 passer rating. Buccaneers offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard was an assistant coach in Miami in 2022 when Bridgewater backed up Tua Tagovailoa. Buccaneers defensive line coach Charlie Strong was Bridgewater's head coach at Louisville. Tampa Bay's quarterback room also includes Michael Pratt and Connor Bazelak. Pratt, a seventh-round pick out of Tulane by Green Bay in 2024 who signed to the Buccaneers' practice squad last August, has been sidelined by a back injury. Bazelak signed as an undrafted free agent out of Bowling Green where he spent the final two of his six college seasons.

Rams' Matthew Stafford Gets Major Injury Update From Top NFL Insider

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Los Angeles Rams are currently in the midst of training camp, but they have been doing so without quarterback Matthew Stafford. Stafford is currently dealing with a back issue, and that has brought plenty of worry from fans and pundits alike. More news: Aaron Donald Has Officially Returned to Rams Training Camp Despite Stafford not suiting up thus far in training camp, NFL insider Adam Schefter has provided a major update on the situation. Though Matthew Stafford hasn't practiced at this summer's training camp due to his back injury, it does not sound like an issue that will prevent him for being ready for opening day vs. the Texans. Cc: @tyschmit 🎧 — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) August 5, 2025 "I don't think it's ideal when your quarterback hasn't practiced yet in training camp and it's the first week of August, but my understanding is that it's a total maintenance issue. Yes, he has had some back discomfort, and he has had some pain. 37 years old. "But they don't want to put him out there, they don't want to put and wear and tear on his body. He knows how the game works, he knows how the offense functions, he knows how his teammates think and operate. They are intentionally keeping him out ... my understanding is that if the Rams had a game today, Matthew Stafford would be playing without a question," Shefted stated.

The Rams defeated the Vikings news: Vikings Pro Bowl Linebacker Anthony Barr Announces Retirement Stafford is 37 years old and has spent plenty of time in the league, but it does sound like he is not being rushed into practicing to ensure he will be healthy for an entire 17-game season and more. The Rams also kept most of their team intact through free agency, though they swapped Cooper Kupp for Davante Adams. Adams, like Stafford, is a pro who has experienced many seasons in the league. His experience alone perpetuates a level of confidence that he would likely not need to build a huge rapport with Stafford. The pair would likely need minimal time to get on the same page offensively. The Rams were one of the biggest surprises in 2024, putting together a big season after starting off 1-4. The offensive line was ravaged, and Stafford paid dearly for that by taking a bunch of hits. Despite the rough start, the Rams handily beat the Minnesota Vikings in the Wildcard Round, but were bested by the Philadelphia Eagles in the Divisional Round. The Eagles went on to win the Super Bowl. Still, the Rams possess a solid core, including Stafford. Though he might need some extra time off to make sure he is healthy for all of 2025, that shouldn't be a major concern. The Rams will still be a contender in the NFC once the regular season rolls around. For more on the Rams and NFL, head to Newsweek Sports.
