Colorado will be without two-way star Travis Hunter for three weeks.
Hunter briefly returned to the game after sustaining the hit from Blackburn, but later was removed from action and taken to a local hospital for evaluation. After the game, Deion Sanders said he heard that Hunter would be “out for a few weeks.” On Monday, he confirmed the three-week timeframe to Reed, a longtime coach in Florida who now works for 247Sports as an analyst.
“We’re going to do what we got to do to take care of him,” Deion Sanders said after the game. “I know Travis like a book. He’s probably going to want to be out for two weeks, but his health is more important than this game.” Hunter was the No. 1 recruit in the class of 2022 who signed with Jackson State when Sanders was the coach at JSU. He then followed Sanders to Colorado and has made a major impact in the 3-0 start for the Buffs.
Hunter has 16 catches for 213 yards on offense while also serving as CU’s top cornerback. The season-opening win, Hunter made a diving interception and also had 11 catches for 119 yards. Hunter will be sorely missed as the Buffs go on the road to face Oregon on Saturday for their conference opener. Oregon, the No. 10 team in the country, is also 3-0 and is coming off a 55-10 win over Hawaii.Your browser does not support HTML5 audio.
