Travis Hunter Undergoes Knee Surgery, Sidelined for Remainder of 2025 Season

Hunter, the 2024 Heisman Trophy winner, had 28 catches and 15 tackles this season before surgery, with a six-month recovery expected, Jaguars said.

  • On Nov 11, 2025, Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter underwent successful season-ending surgery in Dallas to repair the lateral collateral ligament in his right knee, the team said.
  • Following the practice injury, Jacksonville placed Travis Hunter on injured reserve after he suffered a non-contact knee injury during defensive drills on Oct. 30, with exams showing no additional damage.
  • Hunter recorded 28 receptions for 298 yards and one touchdown in seven games with four starts, playing 486 total snaps, including 324 offensive snaps.
  • Hunter will miss the remainder of the 2025 season after surgery by Dr. Dan Cooper and Dr. Kevin Kaplan, while some observers say the injury will stunt his NFL growth.
  • The Jaguars traded up to select Travis Hunter at No. 2 overall and signed him to a four-year, $46.65 million contract with a $30.57 million signing bonus, moving him toward the No. 1 receiver role partly due to Brian Thomas Jr.'s nine dropped passes.
