According to Wolfe, a Jaguars coach told him that: “When we interviewed Travis Hunter, we knew right away he was a culture builder on and off the field. And so that is the element, the energy, they’re going to want to see from him the first weekend for him of rookie minicamp.”

Colorado Buffaloes star and Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter is officially off to the NFL. Hunter was selected No. 2 overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2025 NFL Draft after the Jaguars traded up with the Cleveland Browns.
