Travis Hunter's take on NFL two-way difficulty panned when he downplays Shohei Ohtani's feats
Briefly

Travis Hunter, recently crowned Heisman Trophy winner, claimed at the NFL Combine that playing two positions in football is more challenging than Shohei Ohtani’s dual role in baseball. His comments drew significant backlash, with former NFL stars and commentators questioning the validity of his comparison. Chad Johnson humorously challenged Hunter to hit a 95 mph fastball, emphasizing the difficulties of baseball hitting. Hunter's assertion appears short-sighted as he has yet to transition into professional football, leaving many skeptical of his take on athletic challenges.
"I got to get Travis Hunter in the batting cage. As athletically gifted as you are, I want to see you hit a 95 mph fastball, in the cage. The comparison is not even close."
"Probably me, what I do in football, because it's a lot on your body. You know, Ohtani, he's a great player but you got to do a lot in football."
