Travis Hunter already has coaches and executives convinced he can be two-way player in NFL

Associated Press  

INDIANAPOLIS — Travis Hunter arrived at the NFL’s annual scouting combine with a Heisman Trophy resume, an invitation to work out at two positions and ready to answer all doubters. The former Colorado star already appears to have completed one task this week in Indianapolis — convincing coaches and general managers he can become the league’s first true two-way player in decades, and maybe even play special teams, too. I’ll just leave it at that.” Hunter certainly thrived in both spots in college, first at Jackson State in Mississippi before following his coach, Sanders, to Boulder, Colorado. That’s up to the team to decide that, whatever team that drafts him.” One lingering question is how many snaps can Hunter be expected to play at the pro level without declining production?
