“Travis Hunter’s Dual-Threat Dilemma: NFL’s Next Two-Way Star or Specialist?”
The Impending Snap Share
This is where things will get a little tricky for Hunter.
His skill sets as a top cornerback and receiver are inarguable, but the wear and tear on his body will be hard to predict given that the amount of snaps he wants to play.
In the NFL last year, 15 receivers played in more than 900 offensive snaps. Only three reached at least 1,000: Justin Jefferson (Minnesota Vikings), Terry McLaurin (Washington Commanders) and Amon-Ra St. Brown (Detroit Lions).
On the defensive side, 24 cornerbacks played more than 900 defensive snaps, with 11 going 1,000+ (including two rookies: Quinyon Mitchell of the Philadelphia Eagles and the Commanders’ Mike Sainristil). Just two played more than 1,100 snaps (Mike Jackson of the Carolina Panthers and Cam Taylor-Britt of the Cincinnati Bengals)
