Jarrian Jones leaves Bengals game (but Jaguars have perfect replacement)

One of the biggest storylines surrounding the Jacksonville Jaguars in the season opener is that two-way star Travis Hunter lined up at corner and receiver but only logged six snaps on defense. Liam Coen cited his injury-related absence in the preseason as the reason, pointing out that the reigning Heisman Trophy winner wasn't around for the Week 1 installs.

However, Coen said that Hunter's role at corner would increase against the Cincinnati Bengals. True to his work, the former Colorado product has seen an uptick in playing time, especially in light of an injury the Jags sustained in the game.
