Travis Hunter Gets Baptized at Jacksonville Church Before Jaguars vs. Seahawks Game

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter publicly embraced his faith by getting baptized before his Week 6 game, playing both offense and defense in the team's 20-12 loss.

  • Travis Hunter, the Jacksonville Jaguars rookie, was baptized at Celebration Church in Jacksonville, Fla., hours before the home game on Sunday, October 12, 2025, in a video shared by Kristine Love.
  • Hunter said he had planned the baptism, describing it as a new chapter to become a better man after posting a Bible verse on his Instagram last week.
  • Hunter finished with four catches and two tackles while an offside penalty he committed negated a touchdown; the Jaguars were flagged 10 times for 76 yards against the Seattle Seahawks.
  • The loss dropped the Jaguars to 4-2 and sets up a London game next week against the Los Angeles Rams after a 20-12 defeat to the Seattle Seahawks.
  • Hunter, the second-overall pick and 2024 Heisman winner, was baptized at Celebration Church, Jacksonville, about 14 miles from EverBank Stadium in an unusual pregame event Sunday.
