“It’s Sunday. It’s God’s day. I’ve been planning to go get baptized for a minute,” Hunter told reporters after the game. “I changed my life over to become a better man.”

For Hunter, baptism wasn’t just a symbolic act — it was a spiritual turning point.

“It means a lot,” he added. “I’m leaving my old self and starting a new chapter.”

Hunter’s decision to be baptized before game day reflected what he claimed “putting priorities in order.” The Jaguars went on to fall 20–12 to the Seahawks, but Hunter’s quiet victory that morning spoke volumes.
