Travis Hunter, the Jacksonville Jaguars' No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has officially signed his four-year rookie contract worth $46.65 million, fully guaranteed. The deal includes a $30.57 million signing bonus paid entirely upfront, setting a new record as Hunter becomes the first non-quarterback not drafted first overall to receive his entire signing bonus upfront. The Jaguars announced Hunter's signing in two separate posts, listing him as both a wide receiver and a defensive back, reflecting his two-way playing role. Hunter, a former University of Colorado star and reigning Heisman Trophy winner, will play both offense and defense for the Jaguars. The contract structure acknowledges his unique position, as he will not be eligible for additional pay adjustments until after the 2027 regular season. Hunter has expressed excitement about his contract, humorously noting his first big purchase was Jaguars-branded pajamas from Amazon.
