Deion Sanders was right when he declared Travis Hunter a Heisman candidate at halftime of Colorado’s game against TCU.
On Saturday, Hunter put up one of the most insane stat lines in college football history when he played wide receiver and cornerback for most of the game against TCU.
At the end of the game, Hunter ended up playing 151 snaps, picked up 119 receiving yards, an interception, and three tackles.

I think we can all agree we should just give Travis Hunter the Heisman already.

After playing over 110 snaps in nearly 100-degree weather, Hunter told Fox’s Jenny Taft that he wasn’t tired and was ready to go back in again.

Deion Sanders said he was putting Hunter in a hot tub on the plane after the game.

It’s also worth noting that Hunter’s interception during the game should be considered one of the best plays of the year so far.
OMFG TRAVIS HUNTER!!! 🚨
