"After few L’s all that dancing will stop," another added.

The Jaguars traded up to take Hunter with the No.2 pick in this year's draft. They plan to continue using the Heisman Trophy winner as a two-way player.

Hunter played one year at Jackson State before transferring to Colorado in 2023. He spent two years with the Buffs before entering the draft.

Although the Jaguars should not be too concerned with the player's performance at the reaction test, it's something that the team will want Hunter to improve on in the offseason, especially since he will play as a wideout.

Jacksonville plans to use Hunter mainly in the team's offense, before getting him up to speed with the defensive playbook.
