Jacksonville Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter announced the birth of his first child, a boy. Travis and his wife, Leanna Lenee, kept her pregnancy a secret.
He announced his son’s birth in a video on his YouTube channel on Wednesday. The video, titled “Dear Son…,” was viewed over 140,000 times by Wednesday night.
The video begins with Travis and Leanna celebrating a positive pregnancy test.
Leanna showed off her sonogram and said her dream was to have a baby boy with “lots and lots of curly hair.”
Then they are seen in a darkened delivery room before the cries of a newborn baby are heard.
Travis said he “looks just like me.”
The news comes as rumors continue to swirl that Leanna filed for divorce weeks after they got married in May.
Leanna’s critics note that they got married without a prenup in Tennessee.
The rumors apparently affected Travis’ game.
He caught just 2 passes for 9 yards in his first preseason game with the Jaguars. Travis didn’t play in the final two preseason games.
Jaguars general manager James Gladstone told reporters on Wednesday that Travis is “rolling full speed” ahead of the Jaguars season against the Carolina Panthers on Sept. 7.
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound cornerback and wide receiver played for the Jackson State Tigers and Colorado Buffaloes under head coach Deion Sanders.
He caught 96 passes for 1,258 yards and 15 touchdowns with the Buffaloes, before winning the Heisman Trophy in 2024.
