Travis Hunter Rumors: NFL Scouts Prefer Colorado Superstar at WR Instead of DB

Set Number: X164462

Travis Hunter is a do-everything superstar at Colorado, but NFL scouts reportedly think he'll need to focus on being a receiver at the next level.

Matt Miller of ESPN reported scouts peg Hunter more as a receiver, "where Hunter's speed and electric ability with the ball in his hands is best utilized, whereas at cornerback he would need to focus on technique more and rely less on winning with speed."

Hunter played both wide receiver and cornerback last season, racking up 57 receptions for 721 yards and five touchdowns while adding 31 tackles and three interceptions on the defensive side.
