Travis Hunter Joins Select List of Players to Record Interceptions and Offensive Touchdown in Same Game

Travis Hunter’s two-way performance included his second career touchdown reception and an end-zone interception that denied Houston a scoring chance.

  • On Sunday, October 18, 2026, Jacksonville Jaguars star Travis Hunter recorded both a touchdown reception and an end-zone interception against the Houston Texans during the NFL London Series match at Wembley Stadium in London.
  • During the Week 6 NFL London Series, Hunter played like the Heisman Trophy-winning standout he was at Colorado, finally realizing the potential of the Jaguars' ambitious two-way player experiment.
  • Hunter caught four passes for 59 yards and a touchdown while adding three tackles and a crucial interception to deny the Texans a score.
  • A costly 12-men-on-the-field penalty occurred when Hunter was slow to exit the field during a third-quarter punt, nullifying the play and effectively granting Houston a turnover.
  • Although the Jaguars lost to the Texans on a last-second field goal, Hunter became the first player in 24 years to notch both a touchdown reception and an interception in the same NFL game.
