The two-way talent is squashing competition both on and off the field. Travis Hunter, along with the Colorado Buffaloes, are at the forefront of criticism all the time. While they’re usually calm and deaf to the constant scrutiny, Hunter had to hit back at Richard Sherman when he commented against his NFL future. Everyone knows that Travis excels at being both the WR and the DB and has talked about how he wants to continue being the two-way athlete when he goes to the NFL, which hasn’t been seen in recent times in the sport. In light of this, Sherman spoke harshly about Hunter’s future by claiming that he won’t be able to do both jobs in the NFL, to which Hunter replied and said, “Stop speaking on me and let me play football.” After such a tense environment, the two have seemingly settled their differences over a phone call, as per the Colorado prodigy himself.

On the 26th September episode of the ‘Well Off Media’ YouTube channel, Bucky asked Travis directly about his squashed beef with Sherman, and the WR had quite the humbling answer to give. Richard Sherman is the former cornerback for the Seattle Seahawks as well as the San Francisco 49ers, which happens to be Hunter’s favorite NFL team. Thus, the entire incident was just upsetting for Travis, who had to see one of his idols talk trash about him, but now they’ve made up with each other.

Travis was heard saying, “Yeah we talked on the phone. He didn’t mean for it to go out that way, that type of no-negative energy. He was telling me that he watched me a lot but you know, I grew up watching them. 49 was my favorite team, when I was growing up so, that was low key our rival, the Seahawks, him playing DB, I modded my game after them when I was younger. So yeah he was just telling me he apologizes, you know, I accept the apology. It just kind of hurt me because I look up to him, so that’s pretty much what it was.” 

Thus, the two football stars have left their tiff in the past and are now moving on progressively with a collaboration that will be coming soon.

Travis Hunter and Richard Sherman set to do a collab

The Richard Sherman Podcast has over 138,000 subscribers and is renowned for hosting guests from all over the world of football, ranging from NFL stars to College football’s up-and-coming athletes. As such, after Deion stepped in to resolve the conflict between Travis and Richard, the fans made the plea to release the audio footage between them to provide more clarity on the situation.

In response, Sherman tweeted that Hunter would be joining the podcast very soon, where they would seemingly address their interaction once again with the public eye.

Sherman’s tweet read, “He will be on the podcast soon and we will have it.” This is after Sherman spoke up about how they had their conversation with the helping hand of Coach Prime. Thus, everything seems to be pleasant on Travis Hunter’s radar as he gears up to play against the UCF Knights this weekend. Hopefully, he will give a fantastic interview on Sherman’s show very soon.
