Where Should Travis Hunter Play in the NFL?

Colorado star Travis Hunter is a unique player, starring as both a wide receiver and a cornerback. He caught 92 passes for 1, 152 yards and 14 touchdowns as a receiver, and tallied 21 solo tackles, 11 pass breakups, and four interceptions as a cornerback. The question is, where will he play more in the NFL? Playing both sides of the ball in the pros is challenging. NFL coaches and execs were asked where they'd play Hunter. Most said he'd be a cornerback, highlighting his elite ball skills and the rarity of finding a shutdown corner. However, they also mentioned using him on offense in specific packages. The New England Patriots might draft Hunter at No. 3 in the 2025 draft. They have needs at wide receiver and cornerback. Hunter could fill either role, though experts suggest he'd be a defensive star. With the Patriots' defense struggling, drafting Hunter might make the most sense.
