Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter entered the Week 7 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams with no touchdowns scored just yet. That all changed on Sunday morning, though, as the 2025 second-round pick hauled in his first score off a dime from quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
The 22-year-old two-way player caught a beautiful ball from Lawrence that landed right in his hands over a defender. Hunter caught the pass around the eight-yard line, then did the rest of the work to record his first career touchdown. The score was also Jacksonville's first and only in the game.

Overall, it was a rough outing for the Jaguars as the team suffered a 35-7 loss in Week 7. The Rams' defense was all over Trevor Lawrence, as they sacked him six times. Additionally, there were a ton of dropped balls by his teammates, as the 26-year-old quarterback only completed 47.9% of his pass attempts.
On the bright side, it appeared to be a breakout game for Travis Hunter as a wide receiver. The former Heisman Trophy winner ended the contest with eight receptions for 101 yards and a touchdown. He led his team in all three of those categories. Defensively was a different story, though, as Hunter struggled to defend Davante Adams throughout the contest.
The Jaguars fall 4-3 on the season. However, Jacksonville is still very much in the hunt in the AFC South, as the franchise is still nipping at the heels of the first-place Indianapolis Colts. Travis Hunter and his teammates have a bye in Week 8, but will return to action in Week 9 when they face off against the Las Vegas Raiders.
