New York Post • • sports
Key Points:
- During the Jaguars' 35-6 win over the Patriots, Travis Hunter recorded his first NFL interception, marking a significant milestone in his career.
- Jaguars teammate Josh Hines-Allen attempted to retrieve the interception ball for Hunter, but an NFL equipment staffer refused to hand it over, leading to a physical altercation.
- The equipment staffer’s refusal and subsequent confrontation, including yelling and pushing, was unusual as players typically receive milestone balls without issue.
- The incident may result in a fine for Hines-Allen due to the physical contact, although the staffer's reaction likely escalated the situation.
- Hunter, a highly touted No. 2 overall draft pick known for playing both wide receiver and cornerback, remained focused on the game despite the celebration and controversy.
