Travis Hunter launched some bombs during his time with EA Sports for his ‘EA Sports College Football 25’ photoshoot.
The Colorado Buffaloes wide receiver/cornerback is one of the cover athletes for the video game, for which a trailer dropped today.
Travis, who joins Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers and Michigan Wolverines running back Donovan Edwards on said cover, appeared to enjoy himself in a behind-the-scenes video from their recent shoot.
The clip below shows him throwing a ball downfield to himself and sprinting to try to catch it. Ewers, who is nearby, also throws a ball, and they land just about the same place.

Travis Hunter Is Honored To Be On The Cover Of ‘EA Sports College Football 25’
‘EA Sports College Football 25’ will launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on July 19. The title, which has been on break since 2014, includes all 134 FBS teams and the names, images, and likenesses of nearly 13,000 student-athletes, including Hunter, who considers it a huge honor to be on the cover.
“It’s just a blessing to be able to be on the cover,” the CU star told ESPN. “We grew up watching this and looking at the covers, and now we’re on it. When I was young, I waited till 12 o’clock to get every NCAA. It was my favorite game by far. I still play the old NCAA 14 to this day.”
EA saw over 10,000 players opt in just eight days after opening the process up. Players who opt in will receive a $600 payment and a copy of the game. Hunter and Ewers were among the first high-profile players to do so.
