Chris Olave Shines in Joint Practice Against Travis Hunter
In a recent joint practice between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the New Orleans Saints, Chris Olave demonstrated his prowess by successfully beating Travis Hunter in coverage. Videos shared online captured the moment, with many fans commenting on Hunter's struggle during the play.
As Olave caught the pass, Hunter appeared to be a step behind, leading to widespread discussion on social media about the play. While some labeled it a welcome-back moment for Hunter in his second NFL season, others defended him, suggesting that better timing could have turned the play into an interception.
Hunter has undergone a significant physical transformation during the offseason following a torn LCL that limited his rookie season. He has added muscle while maintaining his speed, recently clocking a sprint at 22.6 mph. The Jaguars plan to utilize him primarily as a starting cornerback this season, while also allowing him to play as a receiver. Despite the challenges faced during the joint practice, Hunter's progress has generated optimism for his upcoming season.
