Travis Hunter Sr. is once again in legal trouble. The father of the Jacksonville Jaguars rookie is currently serving one year in community control supervision in Florida after pleading guilty to drug possession and illegally possessing a firearm as a convicted felon.

On Wednesday, Hunter Sr. was once again sent to prison after having an issue with his ankle monitor.

He is being held without bond pending further court proceedings, pursuant to the warrant. The jail in West Palm Beach confirmed to USA TODAY Sports he was arrested July 22 and is being held there with no bond.

According to court documents, Hunter’s ankle monitor was not worn for 11 minutes, which set off an alert.

Hunter Sr. generated a “bracelet gone” alarm between 8:07 p.n. and 8:18 p.m. ET on June 28, according to the probation officer’s report. When contacted by the monitoring center on June 28, Hunter Sr. said he was in his bedroom while the monitoring device was in the living room, according to the report. Then on July 1, he stated that he had misplaced the monitoring device during the alarm and was looking for it.

When the probation officer tested the ankle monitor and determined it was working properly. Hunter Sr. claimed he was “moving too fast and forgot it.”

This led to the judge determining that Hunter Sr. violated his probation “for failing to submit to electronic monitoring.”

Hunter Jr. begins Jaguars camp this week and will likely be asked about his father’s arrest.
