Cam Newton Worries About Travis Hunter’ Focus

When the Jacksonville Jaguars traded up to choose Travis Hunter at No. 2 overall, it was the most audible move of the 2025 NFL Draft. It can be deemed an overreaction to move up three spots and forfeit a first-round pick in the 2026 Draft as well as a second and fourth-round pick in the 2025 Draft in order to sign a player second.

However, that isn’t the case if you’re Hunter, a two-way standout, Winner of the Heisman Trophy, and an immediate franchise changer. However, skill is not the issue for former NFL MVP Cam Newton. Focus is key. He thought of his most recent podcast, 4th&1 with Cam Newton: “I’m gonna tell you the biggest fear that I have for Travis Hunter. Will he be focused in Duval?”

Cam Newton goes into detail about Travis Hunter and his focus

The former Panthers player explained that his fear stemmed from a number of issues, despite the fact that many would interpret these comments as being made to stir up drama.

The former Buffs player just purchased a home for his parents in Savannah, Georgia, and his fiancée’s family resides nearby, all of which are two to three hours away from Jacksonville, Newton said first.

“I’m gonna tell you the biggest fear that I have for Travis Hunter. Will he be focused in Duval?”

However, Cam Newton clarified that Travis Hunter is not being criticized in any way. In fact, he commended him for being one of the few college celebrities who never let fame derail him.

“He’s got a joyful personality, but when he talks, there are some things that hit you in a way that are jaw-dropping.”

“His family stays in Savannah — three hours [away]… Now the distractions come by the metro time,”

“He’s been a guy who’s did everything correct. Contrary to what some believe, it’s like — yo, he’s did everything correct. We don’t hear no riffraff about Travis Hunter.”

Newton hopes it remains that way for precisely this reason.
