The post Travis Hunter wins over new fan on recent flight appeared first on HBCU Gameday.

The 21-year-old wide receiver-defensive back hybrid may have just kicked off his 2025-26 Walter Payton Man of the Year Award campaign with a viral story of his kind actions on a flight from Denver to Jacksonville for the team's rookie mini camp.

“I had the most wonderful flight home from Denver. I met the nicest young man who sat next to me. He offered to put my bag in the overhead compartment and helped me with my tray. He was always polite, saying “yes ma’am” or “no ma’am.” Anyone would be proud to have him as a son or grandson—so polite," Combs wrote.
