Travis Hunter goes off about Carson Beck's NIL deal: 'Where is my $10 million?'

Hunter humorously suggested that he might return to college football if the money was right, joking about testing his NIL value and aiming for another Heisman Trophy. “Let me see if I can get me $100 million,” he quipped. While he acknowledged that entering the NFL Draft was a logical step in his career, he playfully entertained the idea of staying at Colorado if the school offered him $40 million, a sentiment he also shared during practice two months ago.

Hunter’s remarks highlight the evolving landscape of college sports, where NIL deals have become a game-changer. His comments also underscore the significant disparity in earnings among players, with some athletes commanding eye-popping figures. For Hunter, who is projected as a top-five pick in April’s NFL Draft, the focus remains on solidifying his future in the professional ranks.
