Jaguars Get Ball After Hunter's Interception Scuffle

The Jacksonville Jaguars secured the football from Travis Hunter's first NFL interception after a sideline confrontation with a Patriots ballboy.

During Sunday's game against the Patriots, Jaguars cornerback Travis Hunter celebrated his first NFL interception by spinning the ball on the ground. Teammate Josh Hines-Allen then attempted to retrieve it from a Patriots ballboy who had picked it up, leading to a tense exchange where the ballboy shouted at Hines-Allen not to touch him. sos-zagle.org.pl

A Jaguars staffer intervened to resolve the situation, and head coach Liam Coen confirmed on Monday that the team was working to obtain the ball for Hunter. The Jaguars later confirmed they were able to secure the ball despite cornerback Jourdan Lewis's earlier comment that Hunter could have helped by not spinning the ball on the field.
