Lionel Messi’sTravis HunterHanna Cavinder

Well, a player with this high-end caliber will obviously be paid off with glorious rewards, and in the case of the Buffs dual-threat players, that’s exactly the case. On December 6th, Hunter went to his IG and shared a

story saying, “Build for the greats: Messi X Stanley 1913.” And poses with a dapper cup look holding the all-new Lionel Messi collection. Looks like someone is not just making waves on the field but also outside the field. A few days back, Stanley dropped a new collaboration alert with GOAT Messi. As a paid partnership Hunter was seen promoting the infamous Stanley cups. Not surprising to have a well established and booming brand like Stanely choosing to partner up with a man like Hunter.

However, Travis Hunter is not the only one who is in the race to take forward Stanley’s legacy; even Hurricanes basketball player Hanna Cavinder is in the run. A few days back, Hanna posted on the Cavinder Twins’ IG profile with Stanley’s two new iconic drinkware, and both the sisters were looking quite excited to open the package and use the tumblers, saying, “Hydrating with Stanley brand like Lionel Messi.”

Well, both Travis Hunter and Hanna Cavinder will get a huge NIL push with this collaboration, which might also reflect on their valuations. However, for now, let’s see what is the next milestone waiting for Hunter.

What’s next for Travis Hunter?

It’s very well known that Travis Hunter had a very impactful season this year. Not only in terms of his gameplay but also all the buzz he is creating for the Heisman Trophy. The two-way star is at the top spot in terms of odds over Ashton Jenaty, and who knows, he might even win it against everyone. However, Hunters is acutely aware that great talent brings great responsibility, and if he really wants to keep his exceptional track record alive, he has to prepare efficiently for the 2025 NFL draft. As we all know, Travis’s playing both positions in the NFL has been a topic of debate since the season began. But it looks like his stats have finally given an appropriate answer to the haters.

Yes, you heard that right. A few days back, Travis Hunter took to his IG account to share his two-way ratings in the season, where in receiving grade he is at 88.3 and has 5th rank among FBS WRs, and in terms of the coverage grade, Hunter is at 90.3 with 1st position among the FBS CBs. Now the interesting factor is Amon-Ra St. . Brown has an 89.1 receiving grade and is in the 5th position in the NFL WR, and Pat Surtain also has a coverage yard of 85.5 and is in the no. 1 position in the NFL CBs. This clearly shows that Hunter is good at both sides of the pigskin and can play as a two-way player in the NFL, as he is very good at giving competition to NFL stars even while being at the CFB level.
