Colorado star Travis Hunter takes extra care with his body in order to maintain his two-way role for the Buffaloes.

Hunter said Sunday in an interview with ESPN's Ryan McGee for College GameDay that "I go to treatment every day non-stop" to help handle his current workload. He also expressed confidence in his ability to continue playing both offense and defense.

The junior athlete caught 57 passes for 721 yards and five touchdowns while recording 30 tackles and three interceptions in 2023. He more than lived up to the hype as a wide receiver and defensive back.

Hunter's unique abilities were on display again in Colorado's 31-26 win over North Dakota State to open the season. He had three tackles and made his biggest impact at wideout, hauling in seven passes for 132 yards and three scores.

Despite Hunter's comments otherwise, many fans will believe there's a clear shelf life on his two-way exploits since there isn't any precedent in the modern NFL. Some players, most notably Deion Sanders in 1996, have lined up on offense and defense for an extended period, but the experiments ultimately came to an end.

Especially if Hunter winds up where many are projected him in the 2025 draft, an NFL team is likely to believe the risk is too high by having him play cornerback and receiver with regularity. Bleacher Report's NFL Scouting Department projected him to go first overall to the Denver Broncos in its mock ahead of the 2024 season.

The 21-year-old at least seems to understand how breaking new ground as a two-way player in the NFL will require a lot more attention to detail than usual with his training and recovery away from the field.
