” Hunter, the No. 2 overall pick of last year’s draft and the NFL’s first two-way player in decades, was placed on injured reserve last Halloween. He sustained a noncontact injury to his right knee’s LCL during practice.
Surgery soon followed, and Hunter was expected to return to full football activities within six months. “One day at a time. We’re truly immersed in the rehab process,” head coach Liam Coen said at the league’s annual owners meetings on March 31.
“I don’t have a clue when he’s gonna come back, like I know he’s on schedule, I know everybody’s excited about his growth and healing that he’s had. ” “But to me, it’s like, we played half a season without our first-round draft pick, and at two positions. So, alright, what can that look like when he actually is in a rhythm and routine, understands it, is fully immersed in it with everybody and how we got to be as a team [last season].
