Colorado football two-way star Travis Hunter won the coveted Heisman Trophy on Dec. 14.
But the ensuing days have been riddled with controversy as the star college football player’s relationship with his fiancée Leanna Lenee was placed under the microscope. Some fans took aim at Lenee over her behavior in videos which circulated online.
Hunter’s teammate, Sheduer Sanders, has since decided to address the controversy. The Buffaloes quarterback suggested that critics should stop weighing in on the wide receiver and defensive back’s personal life.
“All y’all athletes, entertainers, artist etc. if y’all genuine trying to holla at Trav y’all know how to get in touch with him or someone around,” Sanders wrote on X, on Sunday. “At this point y’all just posting for the algorithm trying to look cool.”

At least one social media video appeared to show Lenee remaining in her seat moments after Hunter was named the 2024 Heisman recipient. NFL icon and Colorado head coach Deion Sanders then appeared to prompt Lenee to stand up. Lenee did eventually briefly embrace Hunter before quickly sitting back down amid the audience’s standing ovation.
Hunter and Lenee’s engagement was pubically confirmed earlier this year.
