Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter is dealing with an upper-body injury and could miss Sunday’s preseason game at New Orleans, coach Liam Coen said Friday.

Hunter, the No. 2 overall pick who is playing both cornerback and wide receiver, did not practice Thursday and may sit out against the Saints as a precaution.

Hunter won the 2024 Heisman Trophy while starring on both sides of the ball at Colorado, but this injury will no doubt restart the debate about how sustainable two-way play is at the NFL level.

Jacksonville’s most recent depth chart released on Tuesday has Hunter listed as a No. 1 receiver, along with Brian Thomas Jr. and Dyami Brown. He is listed on the second team at cornerback behind starters Tyson Campbell and Jourdan Lewis.

Hunter, 22, caught both of his targets for 9 yards in the Jags’ 31-25 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in last Saturday’s preseason opener. He played 10 snaps on offense and eight on defense.

Following Sunday’s game at New Orleans, the Jaguars finish the preseason at Miami on Aug. 23. They kick off the regular season at home against the Carolina Panthers on Sept. 7.
