Defensive players don't normally get Heisman consideration, but with Hunter playing both sides of the ball, bettors are excited about the possibility. Read how Hunter is a huge betting liability.
The last time a defensive player won the Heisman Trophy was back in 1997, when Charles Woodson took home the hardware. While history isn't exactly on Travis Hunter's side, that isn't stopping bettors from going all in on one of Colorado's studs. At BetMGM, Hunter currently has 15.8% of the total handle of all Heisman Trophy wagers and is by far the biggest liability. Despite money pouring in on Hunter, he remains a long-shot bet to win the award.
5 games Hunter played in last season, he caught 57 passes for 721 yards and five touchdowns as a wide receiver. Defensively, he had 30 total tackles, two tackles for loss, and three interceptions. Hunter put his name on the Heisman map after his sensational Week 1 performance against TCU last season. In that game, he played 144 total snaps, catching 11 passes for 119 yards and had a game-changing, diving interception that helped lead Colorado earn a massive upset.
