Travis Hunter, Jimmy Horn Jr. & Jordan Seaton react as Colorado prodigy drops motivational post on IG

Colorado stars Travis Hunter, Jimmy Horn Jr. and Jordan Seaton reacted to teammate Will Sheppard's motivational post on Instagram ahead of the Buffs' Week 13 clash against Kansas. On Friday, Sheppard posted a series of pictures from Colorado's win over Utah from Week 12.

"Counted blessings, not problems, that’s how I stay up," Sheppard wrote as the caption.

Here are Hunter, Horn and Seaton's reactions to Sheppard's post:

Sheppard recorded 71 yards and caught two touchdowns on five receptions against Utah to help Colorado to a 49-24 win last Saturday. He is expected to play a critical role for the team in this Saturday's matchup against Kansas.

Sheppard has forged a strong partnership with quarterback Shedeur Sanders this season. The duo is seen as a formidable threat in Colorado's offense.

The No. 16 Colorado Buffaloes (8-2, 6-1 Big 12) have an outside chance of making it to the College Football Playoff if they win their two remaining games. Furthermore, their chances of getting a higher ranking in the AP poll are boosted by Heisman Trophy contenders Shedeur and Hunter.

Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter have been integral to Colorado's success this season. They will also play important roles for the team heading into the final stretch of the regular season.

Hunter has posted 911 yards and caught nine touchdowns on 74 receptions as a wide receiver. As a cornerback, he has racked up 23 tackles, 16 of which have been solo, recording eight passes defended, three interceptions and one forced fumble.

Meanwhile, Sanders has completed 280 of 384 passes for 3,222 yards and thrown 27 touchdowns with seven interceptions. He has also rushed for four touchdowns.

Both Shedeur and Hunter are expected to declare for the 2025 NFL draft, and they will each look to boost their draft stocks heading into their final few games with the Buffs. Their stock would likely improve even further if they led Colorado into the Playoff.
