“Travis Hunter’s Dual-Threat Dilemma: NFL’s Next Two-Way Star or Specialist?”
His 15 passes defensed tied for sixth in the FBS. He also rarely allowed long passes, as his average of 9.8 deep yards allowed tied for 12th-fewest of the aforementioned draft-eligible group.
If NFL teams want Hunter to play cornerback as much as he did at receiver, he would be best suited as one who wouldn’t be required to shadow an opposing team’s top pass catcher.
He’s solid in coverage, but the constant strain of defending a heavily targeted player could wear on his ability to contribute on offense as well and maintain the same level of conditioning on both sides of the ball.
