Travis Hunter will miss at least four games after injuring his knee during Thursday’s practice, it has been revealed.
The Jaguars rookie will be placed on injured reserve, coach Liam Coen told reporters on Friday, ruling him out until Week 13 at the earliest.
According to NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe, Hunter’s injury was non-contact.
Hunter had his best pro game to date before his team’s bye, racking up 101 yards and a touchdown against the Rams in London.
He also led the team in targets (14) during the team’s 35-7 loss, and played a season-high 64 snaps.
His injury will come as a major blow to Jacksonville, who dropped consecutive games before their Week 8 bye to fall to 4-3 on the year.

The two-way star has 298 receiving yards thus far for his new team, while he’s also played 36 percent of defensive snaps and racked up 11 solo tackles.
In his absence, the Jaguars will likely further rely on receivers Brian Thomas Jr. and Parker Washington, who are first and third on the team respectively in receiving yards.
