Colorado head coach Deion Sanders believes two-way phenom Travis Hunter will have to continue being himself in the NFL if the team that drafts him wants him to excel.
During a behind-the-scenes video (12:45 mark), Sanders said Hunter, who plays both wide receiver and cornerback for the Buffaloes, should play both offense and defense at the professional level.
"NFL got a problem. What you gonna draft him as? And... he's gotta play both ways. 'Cause he has value on both sides of the ball," Sanders said.
In his first year at Colorado, Hunter was a consensus All-American and won the 2023 Paul Hornung Award as the most versatile player in college football.
