Travis Hunter signs rookie contract with Jaguars, who make separate DB and WR announcements
It's official. Travis Hunter is a Jacksonville Jaguar. The two-way star has signed his rookie contract. The Jaguars announced the deal twice on Sunday — with one post saying they had signed DB Travis Hunter and another saying they had signed WR Travis Hunter. Advertisement Only certain details of the contract were negotiable. Per the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, rookie contract values are predetermined based on draft slot. As the No. 2 pick in April's draft, Hunter is due $46.65 million that is fully guaranteed over four years. The Jaguars will have a fifth-year option. Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Hunter will receive his entire $30.57 million signing bonus up front. According to the report, Hunter is the first non-quarterback who wasn't drafted first overall to negotiate payment of his entire signing bonus at the front end of his contract. There was little doubt the contract would be signed. But Hunter's signature ends a delay in getting a deal done that extended through OTAs and mandatory minicamp. Now the specter of a holdout has been removed ahead of Jaguars training camp, which starts on July 19 when Hunter and his fellow rookies are due to report. Travis Hunter has signed his rookie contract. () (Logan Bowles via Getty Images) Big investment comes with high stakes The previous lack of a deal did not stop Hunter from taking part in offseason practice sessions. Hunter was a participant in OTAs and in minicamp, critical sessions for rookies to get acclimated to the NFL and their new teammates. Advertisement The Jaguars invested heavily to acquire Hunter near the top of April's draft, with hopes the Heisman Trophy winner can turn the franchise's fortunes around after they missed the playoffs in each of the past two seasons. The Jaguars traded up from the fifth pick with the Cleveland Browns for the No. 2 selection they used to draft Hunter. In addition to the No. 5 pick, they parted with their first round-selection in 2026 and a second-round pick in April in the deal to secure Hunter. The Browns used the second-round pick from Jacksonville to select Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins. How will the Jaguars use Travis Hunter? A prospect with All-Pro upside at wide receiver and cornerback, it's not yet clear just how the Jaguars will deploy Hunter. But he'll almost certainly get significant run at wide receiver as the Jaguars look to capitalize on the upside of quarterback Trevor Lawrence, the No. 1 overall selection in the 2021 draft. Advertisement Lawrence made a Pro Bowl in his second season, but has largely failed to deliver on his predraft hype as a can't-miss quarterback prospect and franchise savior. Jacksonville made the playoffs in 2022 but has finished 9-8 and 4-13 in subsequent seasons that didn't result in a postseason berth. Lawrence didn't make the Pro Bowl in either season. With Hunter's talents at his disposal, pressure will be further increased on Lawrence to deliver in his fifth NFL season and return Jacksonville to postseason contention.

Rays begin ‘exclusive discussions' to possibly sell team to group led by Florida developer
TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — The Tampa Bay Rays are reportedly in the process of finding a new buyer for the team. A report by Sportico cited multiple unnamed sources that the Rays were negotiating a deal to sell the team to a group led by home developer and UF Board of Trustees member, Patrick Zalupski of Ponte Vedra Beach. Advertisement In a statement to WFLA News Channel 8, the Rays confirmed the negotiations. 'The Tampa Bay Rays announced that the team has recently commenced exclusive discussions with a group led by Patrick Zalupski, Bill Cosgrove, Ken Babby and prominent Tampa Bay investors concerning a possible sale of the team. Neither the Rays nor the group will have further comment during the discussions.' Video above: What's next for St. Pete after Rays pull stadium deal? This came after the Rays' deal to build a new stadium at Tropicana Field and help redevelop the Gas Plant District fell through due to the damage caused by Hurricane Milton. During the hurricane, the current stadium's roof was torn by high-speed winds that left devastation on the Rays' home base. Advertisement As a result, the Rays moved to Steinbrenner Field in Tampa to play during the 2025 season. According to St. Petersburg and county spokespeople, the Rays did not speak to them about the sale. 'It definitely appears that if the sale goes through that the Rays will be in Tampa Bay for the long term,' said Pinellas County Commissioner Chris Latvala. 'Today is definitely a good day for Rays fans.' Latvala admits to being critical of the current Rays ownership because of how Latvala said they conducted themselves after the hurricane and who they blamed and what they were trying to get after the hurricane. He says it's all in the past now. Advertisement 'But I think also there should be credit to Mr. Sternberg for, you know, if he goes through with the sale, and selling the team to folks that will keep it in Tampa Bay,' Latvala said. Fans at Steinbrenner Field Wednesday said they don't want to see the team leave the area. 'The best move is to build a new stadium in Tampa where we feel like people will come,' said Dori Simpson, a Rays fan. Latvala said he would be open to revising a stadium deal with new owners. 'I think it's really up to the new owners where they want the stadium,' Latvala said. 'From what I've heard, it's probably on the Tampa side. I don't want to speak for them.' Advertisement He said he would ask whoever became the new owners to care about the Tampa Bay community. This is a developing story.
