Travis Hunter's Fantasy Value Trending Up After Latest Trevor Lawrence Stat Line Revealed


Travis Hunter’s Fantasy Value Trending Up After Latest Trevor Lawrence Stat Line Revealed originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Travis Hunter’s spots on the offensive and defensive depth charts with the Jacksonville Jaguars have been the talk of central Florida and NFL fans throughout the nation this preseason as the Colorado Buffaloes’ hotshot rookie prepares for his first taste of the big time.

Hunter played both ways in Boulder with the Buffaloes and now has a chance to show that two-way play is still possible in the modern NFL.

The Hunter experiment took several twists and turns throughout the Jaguars’ game against the Steelers in week one of their preseason schedule, and now fans are hypothesizing about the possibilities if Hunter continues down the same path.

“Travis Hunter (played) 11-of-12 snaps with (starting quarterback) Trevor Lawrence,’ reporter Adam Levitan wrote on X. #Jaguars were in 3-WR mostly. Liam Coen’s Bucs were at 71% 3-WR last season. 8th-most in NFL.”

The Jaguars’ insistence on using three wide receiver sets with Hunter included should bode well for the amount of targets he receives this season with coach Doug Pederson’s team in Jacksonville, which could impact his fantasy football value in the coming weeks.

Hunter had two receptions for nine yards in the Jaguars’ 31-25 preseason loss to the Steelers, suggesting he has plenty of room for improvement.

Hunter’s track record as one of the best pass catchers in the Big 12 Conference last season along with his mesmerizing God-given gifts mean that he could be a fantasy sleeper this season.

The former Buffs standout had 96 catches for over 1,200 yards and thirteen touchdowns through the air last season, a testament to his pass-catching abilities.

The Hunter/Lawrence news came as Lawrence’s wife Marissa stole the show with the “cutest” Jaguars fan. The Jags also sent a welcoming message to Hunter prior to the Steelers game.

As the season draws closer, fans will have a chance to watch Hunter continue to get targets, likely more than he had in his first preseason game.

The former Buffaloes star is simply too good to keep off the field on both sides of the football.

If he plays up to his potential, Hunter will likely make several fantasy owners regret passing on him by the time the 2025-26 season comes to an end.
