The emergence of wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter in the NCAAF, donning the colors of the Colorado Buffaloes, has garnered both supporters and critics. While many consider him a top prospect for the NFL draft, former Seahawks star Richard Sherman has expressed a contrasting opinion. In light of this, and ahead of the UCF matchup, Hunter delivered a suggestive message.

Former San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks player Richard Sherman recently criticized current Colorado Buffaloes star Travis Hunter, labeling him a “soft” receiver. In a clever rebuttal, Hunter made a statement ahead of the game against Central Florida by wearing a shirt featuring that very inscription.

Without a doubt, Travis Hunter is not only an extraordinary talent in American football but also possesses the personality needed to face any obstacles throughout his career. His resilience and determination shine through, making him a compelling figure in the sport.
