Colorado's two-way player will need to figure out future plans before entering the next level
Travis Hunter emerged as a two-way star in high school and never let up off the gas. Mostly because he excelled both as a wide receiver on offense and as a cornerback on defense. Not to mention, he has a coach in Deion Sanders whoHunter followed Coach Prime to Jackson State and later at Colorado. Sanders had a similar career in the "Prime Time" era, playing both sides of the ball, which made him an ideal mentor for Hunter.
“He’s a three-way player,” Miller told SportsCenter Tuesday night. “But I do think at some point, he’ll be really forced by NFL teams to make a decision. We saw last year, he was playing more snaps than anyone in college football early in the season. And then, he had an injury – not related to his playing time – and he had to miss multiple games. So I think Step 1, he’s got to prove he can stay healthy. He’s not a big guy. He’s an undersized player.
Despite an injury setback last year against Colorado State, Hunter demonstrated his importance to Sanders' team. Offensively, he recorded 57 receptions for 721 yards and five touchdowns. Defensively, he added 30 tackles and three interceptions. These impressive stats highlight his dual-threat capability, which has been a cornerstone of his success.
Miller also speculates that Hunter could find success as a kick returner in the NFL, adding another dimension to his versatile skill set. This possibility will undoubtedly be a topic of discussion during the pre-draft process.No. 9 overall pick to the Arizona Cardinals
