Travis Hunter Exits Colorado Game vs Kansas State Due to Injury
Colorado's star freshman, Travis Hunter, left the Buffaloes' game against Kansas State in the first half due to an apparent leg injury. The highly touted two-sport athlete, who committed to Colorado as both a wide receiver and cornerback, was injured while making a tackle on a punt return.
Hunter, who was a five-star recruit and the No. 1 player in the 2023 class, has been a key piece of Colorado's defense and offense. He recorded an interception in the Buffaloes' season opener against TCU and has been a threat in the passing game.
The injury happened early in the second quarter. After Hunter made the tackle, he immediately grabbed his leg and went down to the ground. He was helped off the field by trainers and was seen limping on the sideline.
Hunter was eventually taken to the locker room for further evaluation. While his status for the rest of the game was unclear, the severity of his injury is uncertain.
Colorado fans and coaches are understandably concerned about Hunter's health. With his versatility and potential, Hunter has been a bright spot for a program looking to turn things around.
This injury is a significant blow to the Buffaloes, who are facing a tough opponent in Kansas State.
Update: Following the game, Colorado head coach Deion Sanders provided an update on Hunter's condition, stating that "we're just taking it day by day."
