Hunter had a strong offseason program, impressing the coaching staff. He is the favorite to grab the fifth corner job this summer, and could push for the No. 4 spot against veteran Valentino Blake.
Hunter dressed for two games with the Giants, playing a handful of snaps at cornerback and on special teams in losses to the Vikings and Packers in Weeks 4 and 5, respectively. He was on the practice squad the rest of the year.
Hunter struggled in his limited snaps last year, but he was much improved this spring.
