"It has been fun," Coen said Friday of preparing Hunter to play cornerback and wide receiver. "It really has, man. It's going to be cool to see it on Sunday."
"That's something that we just need to make sure we're aware of and keeping engaged as coaches to make sure that if he's getting a little lost or doesn't know what he is doing on a few things, well, maybe we need to reel it back a little and get him a rest here maybe for a second," Coen said. "Whatever it is, we've got to be flexible. But I thought he's done a really nice job of dedicating himself to the plan on both sides of the ball over the last few days, and he was flying around pretty good today."
Liam Coen plans to finalize Travis Hunter's snap plan within 24 hours while prioritizing flexibility because Hunter missed the second preseason game and four training camp practices for an upper-body injury. Hunter participated fully in 15 training-camp practices and logged 364 snaps in 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 work, with a near 50-50 split: 188 snaps on offense and 176 on defense. In 11-on-11 drills he recorded 173 offensive snaps and 168 defensive snaps. Coaches will monitor Hunter for signs of being overwhelmed and may reduce his workload to provide rest while maintaining engagement to ensure execution and player health.
