It's hilarious that Shedeur Sanders thinks this explanation makes things better.
After Colorado dual-threat Travis Hunter made fun of his offensive line teammates during a College Football 25 livestream, standout quarterback Shedeur Sanders issued a very important clarification that everyone needs to hear and understand.
According to Sanders, Hunter was actually making fun of his Buffaloes teammates from last year. Ohhhhhhh, OK. Mhm. That makes sense. If they’re no longer your active teammates, it’s completely fine, healthy, and not at all childish to make fun of them in public because you no longer have any real ties to them or anything.
Yeah, that tracks. No harm, no foul, really.
Hey, wait a minute.
Trav was referring to last years game play.

In all seriousness, it’s so amusing that Sanders thinks this explanation makes Hunter’s public snafu any better. Purported team leaders shouldn’t be harshly critiquing their teammates in public — former or active — in any context. It just makes one look needlessly petty and silly, with any tangible leadership clearly lacking in Boulder.
The merit of the criticism never matters — these sorts of things shouldn’t be aired out for everyone on the outside to “laugh” at.
Oh, and newsflash to Sanders: the offensive line Hunter made fun of is a game based on this year, not last season. Just saying.
