James Scott Hunter (born November 19, 1947 in Mobile, Alabama) is a former professional American football quarterback in the NFL for the Green Bay Packers, Buffalo Bills, Atlanta Falcons, and the Detroit Lions. He played college football at the University of Alabama. Due to his similarities in pedigree with the aging Green Bay legend Bart Starr, the Packers drafted him out of the sixth round in 1971. Hunter played most of the 1972 season, leading the Packers to their last divisional title until the Brett Favre era.
