Tetairoa McMillan Jokes About Travis Hunter Week 1 Matchup, Hopes He's 'More Fatigued'

Tetairoa McMillan and the Carolina Panthers have a tough matchup to start the season.

The Panthers will take on Travis Hunter and the Jacksonville Jaguars, and McMillan is hoping Hunter will be worn out from playing offense and defense.

“He probably going to play both sides," McMillan said. "Hopefully he gonna be more fatigued than I am.”

McMillan's hopes might not come true, though, since Hunter has grown accustomed to playing on both sides of the ball at a high level over the years.

While the exact plan for Hunter isn't clear just yet, he's clearly gearing up to play offense and defense. Jaguars coach Liam Coen said last month that Hunter would "flip-flop" between training with the offense and defense during camp.

Hunter is also listed as a starting wide receiver and a second-string cornerback on the team's official depth chart on Monday.

While Hunter might be the most talented rookie in this year's class, McMillan is arguably the better receiver, and he'll look to prove that in Week 1.
