Travis Hunter’s wife Leanna Lenee has been to her fair share of football events, so she knows what the wives and girlfriends of players will be going through during the 2026 NFL Draft.
Lenee attended the 2025 NFL Draft with Travis Hunter and his mother. She was also there when Hunter won the Heisman Trophy in 2024. It was there that she first came to understand the scrutiny that WAGs receive at such events.
During the Heisman ceremony, Lenee went viral when Deion Sanders, Hunter’s college coach, told her to stand up after Travis won the prestigious award. The day after the ceremony, she again went viral for appearing annoyed with Hunter as he took pictures with fans at a Heisman party.
So, she knows all about the criticism that the wives and girlfriends of players selected in the 2026 NFL Draft might face, and she shared some advice with them in a TikTok video.
Leanna Lenee’s advice to NFL Draft WAGs
“Don’t get in the camera because if you get in the camera too much, you are an attention whore and you want this to revolve around you,” Leanna Lenee said in her video.
“Also don’t avoid the cameras and sit down and try to dodge the cameras because then you don’t care about your boyfriend, or fiancé or husband and supposedly other people are going to have to tell you to sit up, when really you’re just trying to hide from cameras.”
“Number two, don’t stand up too fast because then you’re trying to make it about you. But also don’t stand up too slow because then you’re bored or don’t want to be there,” Lenee continued.
“Don’t hug him before his mom hugs him because then that’s wrong and his mother should hug him first. But also, hug before his mom because then it’s going to look like someone is trying to tell you to go hug him when really you were just trying to let his mom hug him first.
“Don’t cry, because if you cry then you’re dramatic. But also if you don’t cry then you don’t care about him and you’re just there for money.
“Don’t wear heels because when your feet start to hurt and your man carries you then you’re trying to make it about you. But also if you don’t wear heels then you’re classless.”
NFL Draft WAGs are in a no-win situation
“Don’t smile too much because if you do, then they’re gonna think that you’re just there for money,” she added. “But also don’t forget to smile because if you’re not smiling, then you’re miserable and you actually hate him and you’re just with him for money.
“Cheer for your man because that’s important and if you don’t then you’ll get hated. But also don’t cheer too much because if you do you’re doing too much and you’ll be hated.
“And that’s all, so actually, don’t go.”
Leanna Lenee’s advice for WAGS at the 2026 NFL Draft drew comments from a couple of famous folks. The first was her husband, Travis Hunter, who wrote, “U got this one,” along with a crying-laughing emoji. The second was by Angel Reese, who commented, “IM DEAD” with laughing emojis.
