Travis Hunter injury update: ESPN broadcast gives latest on Colorado star

Travis Hunter has started off Saturday’s game against Kansas State in impressive fashion once again, playing both sides of the ball. There is an issue late in the second quarter, though, as Hunter was shown by the ESPN broadcast heading back to the locker room. Not what you want to see from a Heisman Trophy hopeful.

A Colorado assistant was holding Hunter’s helmet but the two-way star was walking under his own power. ESPN’s Quint Kessenich later revealed Hunter is dealing with shoulder pain and the issue has been throughout the entire game. Not one specific moment can be linked to the injury.

“Hunter with the right shoulder pain,” Kessenich said. “You pointed it out. The medical staff looked at him. He came over, grimacing in pain. They came over to him again and now, this is the second time in this game that he has walked off. Amazing toughness because Omarion Miller wanted to substitute himself into the game, Travis waved him off. But finally, he’s in the locker room now, getting further evaluated.”
