- NCAA. Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter are fighting each other for chance to be drafted by same team
Travis Hunter will be one of the top picks of the 2025 NFL Draft at Green Bay, Wisconsin, an event that's 11 days away.
The Heisman Trophy winner and a dual threat on both sides of the ball - as a wide receiver and a cornerback - is expected to be one of the faces of the league in the next couple of years.
Multiple mock drafts have Hunter landing with the New York Giants - a team that has veterans quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston - as the number three pick of the draft. Longtime beat writer Paul Schwartz has reported that the team sees Hunter as a cornerback.
Travis Hunter s a baseball team
In the meantime, Travis Hunter continues to show the world that he can do way more than just catch footballs and intercept es. The former Colorado Buffaloes standout displayed flashes of his superb athleticism with the Savannah Bananas baseball team, known as "the greatest show in sports."
Hunter threw out the first pitch during the team's game. And when the Bananas pulled of a dramatic victory, Travis led a choreographed celebration in the batter's box that had the stadium going wild with the great show they got to witness.
Without a doubt, the Savannah, Georgia baseball team is second to none when it comes to dancing, backflipping, lip-syncing and spectacular baseball plays that makes fans all around the nation sell out MLB stadiumds as they are marveled with the action they see on the field.
Travis wants to shine on offense and defense
Travis Hunter recently told AP that that he's unsure what teams will want him to focus on, but he's confident he can shine on both sides of the ball. "They want to see how much I can handle, and it's up to me at this point. It's just me being me."
Hunter was a lockdown corner at Colorado and showed excellent ball skills as a receiver. The question is whether he can be a full-time player on both sides of the ball in the NFL. Finding time to be in multiple meeting rooms is one challenge. The other concern is how stacking so many snaps could affect his overall play.
"I think I just need to see if my body will allow me to take all of this and continue to take all this," Hunter said. "But I do a lot of treatment, so I'm able to keep up with my body and with what I need for my body." Whoever drafts him, we know something for sure: Travis has a chance to be legendary and take over the NFL for many years to come.
