Colorado football two-way star Travis Hunter is the newest Heisman Trophy winner.
The Buffaloes’ cornerback and wide receiver was announced as the 90th winner of the award given to the best player in college football since its inception in 1935. Hunter edged Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty by 214 points in the closest vote since 2009 when Alabama’s Mark Ingram beat Stanford’s Toby Gerhart by 28 points.
Hunter is the first Colorado player since running back Rashaan Salaam in 1994 to win the honors. He is the first non-quarterback since Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith (2020) to win the award and the first defensive back since Michigan’s Charles Woodson (1997).
Here’s a full breakdown of how the Heisman voting went, including the top 10 and the vote leaders by region:
