Colorado star wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter earned a unique accolade on Monday because of his abilities on both sides of the line of scrimmage.

Hunter was named the Big 12’s offensive player of the week, becoming the first player in conference history to have won both offensive and defensive player of the week honors.

He played 132 total snaps on Saturday in a 34-23 win over Cincinnati, setting a career high with 153 receiving yards on nine receptions, with touchdowns of 3 and 34 yards.

The Heisman Trophy candidate — a consensus All-American in 2023 — had collected the defensive award after his performance in the Buffaloes’ 28-9 victory over Colorado State on Sept. 14. The junior made five tackles, one interception and one pass breakup.

For the season, Hunter has 20 tackles, one tackle for loss, one forced fumble, two interceptions and a Big 12-best seven pass breakups as Colorado has become bowl eligible at 6-2 (4-1 conference).

Hunter, who has battled a shoulder injury that caused him to miss portions of games, leads the Big 12 with eight TD catches, is tied for first with 60 receptions and is third with 757 receiving yards.
