Travis Hunter - English
Travis Hunter‘s relationship with Deion Sanders has always extended beyond the football field.
Now, that connection is under the spotlight for an entirely different reason, as whispers about Hunter‘s personal life collide with an old piece of advice from Coach Prime that suddenly feels prophetic.
Travis Hunter fails at juggling tennis balls during two-way NFL transition
A resurfaced video from 2022 shows Sanders joking with Hunter during their Jackson State stint. “I think he [Hunter] done got married on us and ain’t told nobody,” Sanders said with a grin.
Hunter laughed, replying, “Not yet coach.” But Sanders quickly followed with a line that has since gone viral: “Let me know because imma do your prenup for you. It’s going to be about this thick,” he said, stacking his hands high as the room erupted.
At the time, it was typical Sanders humor laced with life lessons. Two years later, the clip is being shared widely after rumors surfaced that Hunter and his wife, Leanna, are considering a split just two months after tying the knot.
Emotional video sparks speculation and revives old warning
The conversation caught fire after Leanna Lenee posted an emotional video of herself crying in a bathroom, filmed last December during a break from social media.
The clip included a caption that left fans guessing: “I wish I could go back and hug December me. Because oh baby, God was about to change your heart in the most important and beautiful way.”
YouTuber IsmokeHiphop, who has been covering the situation, claimed the couple is “reportedly considering a divorce after only two months of marriage.” He added his own perspective on the public fallout: “Now, if this true or not, I just want Travis to know it’s always going to be your fault.”
He doubled down on the idea that perception matters, saying, “No matter what this woman is going through at the cost of her own action, the world and everybody, including the people who are defending you, they’re going to blame you.”
The remarks struck a chord with many, aligning almost perfectly with Sanders‘ original warning to Hunter about life beyond football. Fans have been quick to point out that Sanders has long taught his players that managing public perception is as critical as handling the spotlight on game day.

Liverpool vs Arsenal live updates: Premier League line-ups with Eze, Odegaard on the bench
We asked our experts, Dan Sheldon and Andy Jones...DS: Undoubtedly Arsenal. Arteta knew exactly what his team needed to get over the line in the Premier League, having finished second in the last three seasons, and looks to make sure there will be no excuses if they fail to finish first in 2025-26.Gyokeres, Eze, Zubimendi and Madueke are all first-team-worthy additions, while Christian Norgaard, goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga and Cristhian Mosquera add quality to the squad.

The production of Tom Brady’s Super Bowl rings was pure luxury, but the sentimental value is priceless
Being the greatest of all time comes with unique privileges. Through everything he achieved on the field, Tom Brady proved his quality and talent were unmatched, setting a standard that may take decades before another player even approaches it in the NFL. For that reason, when his Super Bowl rings were commissioned, no detail was overlooked. For the best, only the very best would suffice. The exorbitant cost of Super Bowl ringsTom Brady celebrates his son Jack's 18th birthdayEach Super Bowl ring is a work of jewelry with enormous value. The NFL covers only $5,000 for each of the first 150 rings per championship team, but in reality, the average cost ranges between $30,000 and $50,000, an amount that players themselves must finance.One of the most famous examples came with Brady's fifth ring, which commemorated the Patriots' historic comeback victory […]
