Travis Hunter is adding yet another line to his impressive resume.

As shared by the Colorado Buffaloes football team on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday morning, the Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/defensive back has officially graduated from the University of Colorado.

"Sup Buff nation, it's ya boy Trav," he said in a selfie video. "...Boys out here graduating man!"

Here's a look:

It's been quite the year for Hunter, who, after winning the Big 12's Defensive Player of the Year award and the Heisman Trophy last season, was selected No. 2 overall by the Jags in last month's NFL draft. A star on both offense and defense, the 21-year-old wants to be referred to as both a wide receiver and a defensive back in the league. He can now also be called a college graduate.

Hunter will now head right from Boulder to Jacksonville, as the Jaguars are set to begin their rookie minicamp this coming Saturday. Here's to hoping we get plenty of highlights from Duval's new No. 12.
