Jacksonville Jaguars star Travis Hunter has been ruled out for the remainder of the NFL season after undergoing knee surgery.
Hunter suffered the injury during practice last month and initial hopes among the Jaguars staff was that it would only be a short-term issue. He was placed on the injury reserve list and was ruled out until Week 13 at the earliest.
However, now reports have confirmed that Hunter has since undergone Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) Repair surgery and will not return to the field this season.
According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, Hunter will be able to return to full football months activities in roughly six months time.
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.
Jacksonville started the year 4-1, but the offense faded badly during its consecutive losses to the Seahawks and Rams. They have since won and lost once since then.
