Travis Hunter’s NFL career has begun slowly as the No. 2 overall pick adjusts to playing both offense and defense at the highest level for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
On Monday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, Hunter had the chance to show out in front of a national audience on Monday Night Football, and the former Colorado football star did not disappoint.
Hunter showed off his fantastic ball skills on a 44-yard pass from Trevor Lawrance, and on another play showed his elusiveness, getting away from a couple of Chiefs defenders to pick up the first down.
Needless to say, Buff Nation was loving the performance from their Heisman Trophy winner as he shined on the national stage. Here are the best reactions from Hunter’s Monday night performance.

He is the No. 2 overall pick after all
Using Travis Hunter as a gadget guy is nasty work. He’s literally the best WR in this damn game man. 😪
