So much for Jaguars cornerback Travis Hunter having his worst defensive game of the season.
With the Texans leading 31-28 late in the fourth quarter and driving for what could have been a game-clinching touchdown, Hunter stepped in front of a CJ Stroud pass and intercepted it to keep the Jaguars alive.
It was Stroud’s first interception of the season, and Hunter’s second.
Hunter had been burned in coverage on multiple occasions by Texans wide receiver Nico Collins, but he shook that off to make the big play when the Jaguars needed it most.
Hunter has also been making big plays on offense, with four catches for 59 yards and a touchdown.
The Jaguars are down by three points with three minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
