With the season that Travis Hunter had for Colorado in 2024, it seemed like everything was smooth sailing. However, he and his quarterback, Shedeur Sanders, had a few disagreements on the sidelines, both at practice and during games.

A YouTube video posted by Well Off Media in August featured one such disagreement between Hunter and Sanders.

"Bro, you are so slow, bro," Hunter said on the sidelines to Sanders (at 17:47).

The remark appeared to annoy Sanders, who asked Hunter to stop. The two were seemingly arguing over Sanders not seeing Hunter open on a route. Sanders contended that Hunter ran the wrong pattern, fading away when he was supposed to stay put.

"I'm looking at you seeing what you're about to do!" Hunter said.

Sanders then reasoned with the bothered Hunter.

"Listen, if we're on the same page, and I already know what the (expletive) you're about to do, then just stop," Sanders said.

The attempt didn't work. Hunter repeated himself, trying to drive home his point.

"Bro, I'm looking at you. As soon as you throw the ball, I'm gonna do this right here," Hunter said, dramatically flashing his hands.
"Bro, listen, I only see the corner for one second," Sanders responded.

Travis Hunter eventually agreed with his quarterback as Sanders reminded him that he was looking for him.

"If we have eye contact, you know that I'm gonna throw that," Sanders said.

The tandem continued to argue and the video cut to a black screen reading:

"They do this all the time ... Even before/in games ... True Brothers"

Revisiting the season Travis Hunter had at Colorado

He became the first player to win the Bednarik Award and the Biletnikoff Award, handed to the best defensive player and the best receiver in the nation respectively.

Hunter posted 96 receptions for 1,258 yards and 15 touchdowns as Sanders' primary target, winning the most coveted hardware for an individual in college football, the Heisman Trophy. He narrowly beat out Boise State tailback Ashton Jeanty.

The Tennessee Titans could take Travis Hunter with the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft in April.
