Travis Hunter is most likely going to be a star in the NFL after putting together a remarkable and historic career in college. The Heisman Trophy winner will be a top pick in the upcoming draft, whether he’s viewed as a cornerback or receiver at the next level.
He was a two-way player at Colorado and was outstanding on both sides of the ball, but Puka Nacua isn’t sure he’ll be able to sustain that workload in the pros. He says it “definitely would be a challenge,” but Nacua says Hunter has a “great skill set” and is excited to see him take his talents to the NFL.
Rams WR Puka Nacua said it remains to be seen if Colorado star Travis Hunter can play regularly on both sides of the ball in the NFL. “I’m not sure. I think it definitely would be a challenge but I think he’s got a great skill set. But it will be exciting to see how he turns out”

The Rams won’t be in position to draft Hunter so we unfortunately won’t see him paired with Nacua at wide receiver or Cobie Durant in the secondary, but he’s going to be a must-see player no matter where he’s selected.
Hunter is a generational talent who could excel at two different positions, making him unlike any other player in the draft.
