Ryan Clark Has A Message For Teams Considering Drafting Travis Hunter


 

Travis Hunter is one of the more tantalizing prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft, a wide receiver/cornerback who feels he can play both positions in the league.

He caught 96 passes for 1,258 yards and 15 touchdowns while also posting 11 passes defended and four interceptions for Colorado last season, and everyone is wondering if he will continue to play both ways in the NFL.

If Hunter has to be relegated to playing only one side of the ball, he likely will still develop into a star, but there wouldn’t be the same pizzazz surrounding him.

Former Super Bowl-winning safety Ryan Clark had a message that indicated Hunter wouldn’t be nearly as valuable if he is limited to one position.

“If you don’t play Travis Hunter on both sides of the football, you don’t need to draft Travis Hunter in the top three,” Clark said, via NFL on ESPN.

Clark also made the point that Hunter isn’t Julio Jones, Randy Moss, Larry Fitzgerald or Marvin Harrison, four of the best wide receivers of the past 20 years, nor is he someone who could develop into one of the better cornerbacks the game has seen.

In other words, as Clark pointed out, Hunter cannot be an alpha at one position or the other, but if he plays both WR and CB, his value would be excellent.

Hunter is widely expected to be one of the first three players chosen, but if Shedeur Sanders is taken with either the No. 2 or No. 3 overall pick, there is a chance Hunter could slide a bit.
