Big Cat Country on Travis Hunter
From the article
Travis Hunter, the two-way phenom drafted second overall last year, wore a teal (offensive) jersey that would be covered by a white (defensive) pinnie at various points throughout practice... No. 12 played 12 total snaps during 11-on-11 team drills: eight on defense, four on offense.
STACKED’s take
Hunter back on field with balanced two-way reps; showing flashes despite easing-in approach.
Two-way phenom drafted second overall returned to practice on Day 1, playing 12 total snaps during 11-on-11 team drills: eight on defense, four on offense. Plan remains unchanged—Hunter will focus on being a starting cornerback while continuing to cross-train on offense. Coaching staff has been extremely intentional about balancing his reps, easing him in while accounting for his need to eventually get double the amount of snaps a normal player receives. Hunter showed flashes with a strong rep against rookie wideout Josh Cameron forcing an out-of-bounds pass, though a climb-the-ladder catch was knocked out of his hands. Head coach Liam Coen noted Hunter 'doesn't really look like he's recovering from an injury,' has 'freaky traits,' and feels 'lighter' despite putting on 10 pounds of muscle for armor and physicality purposes.
