Travis Hunter's ‘two-way star' status remains steadfast as the Jaguars decide to test-drive his rarest skill
Travis Hunter finally gets what he wants: Image via X Finally, Travis Hunter got what he desired most. No, not the brand new model of an imported car, rather the opportunity to explore his two-way talent in the pro just like he excelled at it during college. Yes, you heard it right. From his former coach Deion Sanders relentlessly vouching for it since the NFL pre-draft season to his boy finally standing on the verge of it, time did its own thing. Travis set foot into the NFL realm with a lot of expectations on his shoulders. The Heisman trophy winner boasts a stupendous stat to earn his stripes as a rookie in the Jacksonville Jaguars' camp. He keeps honing his craft during the practices and rewrote the norm for the league. The Jaguars alter Travis Hunter's offseason workout plan The Jags traded a haul of picks to the Cleveland Browns just to move up to No.2 and catch the two-way gem. Guess what, they didn't have to wait to understand they made the right choice. General manager James Gladstone and head coach Liam Coen were flabbergasted seeing Hunter's prowess during the NFL draft selection. Now, as the Jags kicked off their first training camp on Wednesday, it looked like everybody finally agreed with them about what the former Buffs' poster by bringing to the table. So, they just made up their mind to walk some extra miles for him, exclusively. 'You want to give him a couple days offense, a couple days defense, and then give him an opportunity to go flip-flop within the same practice and then that will kind of become the norm," coach Coen casually dropped a massive relaxing update (via ESPN) for the 22-years-old right after his team finished their first workout at the Miller Electric Center adjacent to EverBank Stadium. Nailing two sides of the ball in the NFL is not a cakewalk at all. Although some players in history, including Coach Prime, played both sides during their heyday, it's all but a regular thing in their rulebook. The demanding nature of the sports and the league often restricts the leadership from letting players switch between positions, but Travis? Come on, man! He is special. 'Every moment, every minute that he is in the building, it is accounted for and trying to make sure that we maximize his time, our time, so that we can ultimately get the best outcome,' the Jags HC continues reaffirming the collective calculated decision fueled by the trust they have in their No. 12. Travis Hunter has always been firm on his stance to play both sides all along Travis Hunter and his former coach might have just breathed a sigh of relief, hearing the change in his offseason workout plan. Sure, Travis racked up a solid 1,328 rushing yards, 16 touchdowns, and 1,258 receiving yards in 13 games last year under his belt, but what truly made him the guy was his ability to excel both as a cornerback and a receiver. So, he didn't let that spotlight go away from him, quite obviously. He has had multiple meetings with teams about playing both positions, but nothing looked like a clear assurance. But the 6 ft 1 never refrained from his stand, continuously advocating why he's a good fit to play both sides. " They say, ' nobody has ever done it the way I do it .' I tell them, 'I'm just different.'' Travis stood tall against all the NFL draft gurus and coaches who cast a doubt on his ability to live by his words. People mostly deemed him a future cornerback instead of a receiver because of a fat paycheck, but destiny heard him right. Finally, the prize is here and Travis, now, has a new challenge to make the best out the trust he earned alongside the franchise.

"I certainly never took it for granted. I never took it for granted getting to suit up and lead the Chargers for, shoot, 240-something games in a row." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pirates Climb Aboard Cargo Ship - Watch What The Captain Did Next Tips and Tricks Undo — chargers (@chargers) Selected No. 4 overall in the 2004 NFL Draft, Rivers was part of one of the most iconic quarterback draft classes in NFL history - a group that also featured Eli Manning and Ben Roethlisberger. Live Events A fiery competitor known for his passionate - yet profanity-free - trash talk and fearless play, Rivers earned eight Pro Bowl selections and a Comeback Player of the Year award during his time with the franchise. He exits as the Chargers' all-time leader in wins (123), passing yards (59,271), passing touchdowns (397), fourth-quarter comebacks (27), and game-winning drives (32). Rivers led the team to six playoff appearances and four double-digit win seasons, with his closest brush with a Super Bowl coming in the 2007 AFC Championship Game. Despite falling short of a title, his leadership and consistency gave the Chargers their identity through both highs and lows. He remained the face of the franchise through its relocation from San Diego to Los Angeles in 2017, guiding the team through the transition with three more seasons under center. In 2020, he and the Chargers amicably parted ways, leading him to finish his playing days with the Indianapolis Colts. After one final season in Indianapolis, Rivers retired from the game. Now, nearly five years later, he has officially come full circle by ceremonially retiring as a Charger - a fitting close to a legacy built on loyalty, resilience, and heart.
