Trevor Lawrence on Travis Hunter: "Selfishly, I definitely want him on offense more"

Lawrence Lobbies for Hunter to Stay On Offense

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence wants his newest teammate, rookie Travis Hunter, to stick to offense.

A Quarterback's Wish List

"He's so talented, it's hard to keep him off the field," Lawrence said of Hunter on NFL Network. The quarterback expressed a clear preference: "Selfishly, I definitely want him on offense more." He even playfully presented Hunter with a choice: "Do you want to catch touchdowns or do you want to maybe break up a pass or two?"

Lawrence acknowledged Hunter's versatility and emphasized his desire for the rookie to be on the offensive side of the ball. "He'll make plays wherever he is, but obviously as a quarterback I hope he plays more on offense," Lawrence said.

Playoff Hopes High in Jacksonville

Despite a 22-38 record in Lawrence's first 60 starts with the Jaguars, the quarterback remains optimistic about the team's future. "It's very realistic to expect us to be a playoff team this year," he declared confidently. "You've got to go prove it on Sundays this fall, so it doesn't really matter what I say, but I feel very confident in this team, and I think we're a talented team."

Hunter's unique skillset adds another dimension of talent to both sides of the ball for Jacksonville.
