Travis Kelce Advocates Dual Position Play for NFL Prospect Travis Hunter

Travis Hunter, a standout player from the University of Colorado who won the Heisman Trophy, is expected to be a top pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. While many anticipate that he will have to choose between playing as a wide receiver or cornerback, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce advocates for Hunter to play both positions, arguing that his dynamic skill set warrants it. Kelce emphasized the need for teams to carefully manage Hunter's playing time to avoid burnout, suggesting a strategy of primarily utilizing him on defense while occasionally featuring him as a receiver. Hunter's college coach, Deion Sanders, supports this dual-role approach, stating that teams unwilling to draft him for both roles should reconsider. Other NFL players, including Patrick Peterson, have echoed Kelce's sentiments, recognizing Hunter's unique talent. Despite the Chiefs' low draft position, Kelce humorously noted the possibility of Hunter joining Kansas City, though it's highly unlikely given Hunter's projected top-five status in the draft.
