Travis Hunter Visits Deion Sanders Before Jaguars Move

Travis Hunter, recently drafted No. 2 overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars, returned to Colorado to visit his former coach Deion 'Coach Prime' Sanders, highlighting the deep bond between the two and underscoring Hunter's gratitude for his time at Boulder. While some reports of the reunion suggested a tense dynamic likely influenced by Coach Prime’s son Shedeur Sanders slipping to the fifth round in the NFL Draft, other accounts depicted the meeting as warm and symbolic of their enduring relationship. Hunter’s NFL transition is seen as a continuation of Colorado’s football resurgence under Sanders, who has turned the program into a pipeline for NFL talent and maintained strong personal connections with his players. The Jaguars are expected to creatively leverage Hunter's two-way abilities, initially focusing on offense but also grooming him as a future defensive star. Meanwhile, Sanders is focused on recruiting and developing the next generation of stars at Colorado, using Hunter’s success as a compelling example for prospects like Jalen Lott. The overall narrative reflects both the changing landscape of college football under Sanders' leadership and the personal milestones of his standout players.
