Travis Hunter Perfectly Responds To Travis Kelce’s Skepticism About Both Their Talents, Exciting Fans.

The 2025 NFL Draft is a little over a month away and Travis Hunter will likely be going in the top five picks, if not the top three. The 2024 Heisman Trophy winner is an intriguing prospect because he played both wide receiver and cornerback during his time in college and has the ability to do so in the pros as well.

While discussing Hunter doing just that, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce noted that the Colorado product has to prove that he can do it first.

Travis Kelce Knows What Position Travis Hunter Should Play In NFL

“He’s gonna have to prove that he can do it. Nobody has ever played every single play on both sides. When Deion [Sanders] did it, he was in, like, nickel. He was in certain packages,” Kelce said during his New Heights podcast. “In the NFL, they’ll have to scheme up around him getting too exhausted. They really have to weigh that into their play-calling, both offensively and defensively.”

What Kelce said isn’t an insult. Hunter does have to prove that he can play both sides of the ball at the next level. That’s precisely what the soon-to-be first-round pick said when discussing Kelce’s comments on The Travis Hunter Show.

“Like he said, I have to prove that I can do it. So that’s my main thing. Imma prove that I’m gonna do it, and I can do it. So he’s not telling no lie. I still got to prove it.” Hunter said on his show. “I just can’t go to the league, and they just, ‘Oh, here you go, Trav, you could do all this,’ and I don’t go out and show up how I’m supposed to show up.”

Travis Hunter agrees with Travis Kelce’s comments on two-way abilities

This is a mature response from Hunter. Sometimes these young players think they can do it all so it wouldn’t have surprised anyone if he tried to put Kelce on blast but no, he said Kelce was right and that he will indeed have to prove that he can do it at the next level.

Hunter played both wide receiver and cornerback wonderfully in Boulder, tallying 96 receptions for 1,258 yards and 15 touchdowns on the offensive side of the ball and notching 36 tackles, 11 defended passes, and four picks on the defensive side of the ball. Whoever lands him in the draft will have one heck of a player no matter which position he ends up sticking with.
