The Colorado Buffaloes’ once-promising season has hit a major snag with the potential loss of Travis Hunter. One of the most highly touted players in college football, Hunter suffered a serious right shoulder injury in the second quarter when their game against Kansas State was tied 7-7. Hunter had been on the field for 44 of the first 45 snaps, showing just how crucial he is to the Buffs. But after he left the game, things fell apart – not only for his team, who eventually lost 31-28 to No. 18 Kansas State, but also for his Heisman chances. Well, fans are now left heartbroken after this fateful incident.

Travis Hunter posted a video on his YouTube channel on October 15, showcasing highlights from his games against K-State and the emotional aftermath of his injury. Soon followers began to pray for him in the comments section. One fan wrote, “Praying for you Travis get well soon ❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾,” expressing his admiration for this dynamic CU Buffs player. However, there was a dispute regarding Travis’s injury.

The injury has spurred discussion in the sports community, especially after one pundit offered a contentious viewpoint. Yes, Jason Whitlock, host of FOX Sports, has expressed his opinion that Coach Prime should be held accountable for Hunter’s injuries. Moreover, he claimed that the main cause of Hunter’s injuries was Deion Sanders’ choice to make him play on both sides of the ball.

On the other hand, undeterred by critic comments, Deion Sanders expressed hope for a swift recovery of his two-way phenom following the unfortunate incident. “I haven’t gotten an update on the particular young man. Hopefully, he can get back at it. But we’re not going to rush him. His safety and his health is much more important than this game,” he said.

Now, is it wise for the Buffs to restrict his snap count, given that he won’t be confined to one side of the ball? That is the ongoing question. But supporters are hoping for a speedy recovery since they can’t wait to see him in the next game against Arizona Wildcats.

Fans pray for Travis Hunter after serious injury!

Hunter not only recorded an interception but also caught nine catches for 89 yards and a touchdown in Colorado’s biggest win of the season —a triumph versus UCF. Well, he has been a powerhouse this season, taking more total snaps per game than any other player, averaging almost 115. His impact on the field hasn’t gone unnoticed, and fans were quick to react to his recent injury. One fan posted, “MY GLORIOUS KING IS INJURED I CAN’T BELIEVE THIS,” highlighting just how much Travis means to the team. Another wished him a speedy recovery, saying, “Hoping it’s a fast injury ❤ Get better soon, Trav.”

Travis isn’t just admired for his talent, but also for his humble attitude, which has earned him a dedicated fan base. However, his return timeline is uncertain, and the severity of his injury remains unclear. Whether he’ll be back for the game against Arizona Wildcats next week is a big question. Even though Shedeur and the team will face a 3-3 Arizona squad, which shouldn’t be too tough, managing without Travis could be challenging. His Heisman chances and even his NFL draft prospects might take a hit if he’s out for a long stretch.

Fans continue to express their concern. One wrote, “Travis, please take care of yourself. I’m worried about your future. I’m praying for your recovery and continued good health 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾.” Another fan from Cleveland added, “Get well soon Travis ❤ from Cleveland, Ohio.” Let’s all hope for a speedy recovery for this HE12MAN star.
