He shared a short video post of himself in a cap and gown on the social media site X shortly after walking the stage.
Hunter, who was selected No. 2 overall by the Jaguars after they traded with the Cleveland Browns, attended Colorado for two years. He previously attended Jackson State in Mississippi in 2022.
Hunter won't be able to celebrate his honor too long. After receiving his diploma Thursday, he'll be hopping on a plane and traveling 1,766 miles to Jacksonville, where he will report for rookie minicamp on Friday.
Fans will get a chance to see him when practices are open to the public on Saturday, May 10.

Bengals' Zac Taylor drags Joe Burrow down in QB-coach NFL rankings
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is a top-five player at his position. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor, however, is not a top-five coach in the NFL right now. So says new rankings from Sports Illustrated's Matt Verderame, which aims to list the best quarterback-head coach duos in the NFL. Burrow and Taylor land just inside the top 10 at No. 9 overall: 'The Bengals might not have much defense, but they employ a good coach and a top-five quarterback. Burrow, the former No. 1 pick, had his best season in 2024, throwing for league-bests with 4,918 yards and 43 touchdowns to help Cincinnati stay in playoff contention until the final day. With Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins signed long-term, expect more fireworks for years to come.' RELATED: Cincinnati Bengals' 53-man roster projection following 2025 offseason The problem, as one should expect, is Taylor. Burrow is fourth in his respective rankings, while Taylor is 16th. It's a fair assessment, at least, as the debate continues as to whether Taylor should be on the hot seat and just how much leash the coaching staff should have on the goodwill of the recent Super Bowl appearance. For now, the Bengals will be more than happy to charge forward with a tandem that lands in the top 10 alongside the likes of Kansas City, no matter how lopsided the scale.
